Meeting Fadhel Jaibi's work
The first Tunisian performance I watched tonight at the Tokyo International Arts Festival was quite an impressive work. Though I did not understand a word and had to make imaginative guesses from the translated subtitles in Japanese, the overwhelming poetry of the language used in JUNUN-Insanity was almost visual. Varied energy and rhythm was asserted by the well choreographed group movements and economical mise-en-scéne, reinforced further by the precise articulation of lines and the brilliant acting of the major actor playing the insane boy. The most appreciated fact: no multi-media chiché. (Image by Dali LAMOUCHI from the festival website)
And, it was always nice to have the casual party to meet the artists, with wine and sushi after a show's opening in Japan. I learnt what the artists were saying through the French interpretation. Felt a bit strange, like being a spy. But why should I?
