* La frontière by Gilles Aufray; in Le théâtre à lire et à jouer / 2002 - Directed by Vanina Benisty

A border, somewhere between two countries, two languages, two cultures, two worlds. Refugee children arrive at this border. There, a sentinel tells them that they can choose the country they want to go to. How to choose? Children only know their country, language, culture, world… A group of storytellers offer to travel for them and then come back and tell them what they have seen and heard

Children from 7 to 10 years.

* Anissa / Fragments by Céline Bernard - Directed by Lauriane Goyet

A high school class, from which some individualities emerge: Sandrine who lives with her grandmother, lacking money to pay for boarding school, Leah who discovers love and sexual identity, Anissa, an isolated undocumented minor, who, as a result of a bone test, is threatened with having to leave the territory. What to do in this case? Don't get involved? Come to her assistance? At a time when one must make vows on an orientation sheet, commit one's life, or simply commit. A superb text very contemporary in its form and language, but also in terms of what it says about our time, to evoke a very current issue, with a lot of humanity, a text finally optimistic and full of hope in the youth and their ability to mobilize and show maturity and enthusiasm.

Adolescents from 11 to 15 years old.

* King Lear William Shakespeare - Directed by Orlando Forioso

Feeling close to death, a king decides to divide his kingdom into three, in order to endow his daughters: Goneril, Regane and Cordelia. At a large ceremony where both the sharing and the wedding of the three heiresses are decided, he demands that each of them make an official declaration of love to him that will seal all these donations. But while the first two flatter him with ostentation and excess, the third makes reasonable remarks that infuriate the old man and lead him to curse his favorite ...

What is Lear's morality? Apparently there are two, that of the madman expresses it: Do not give up power! Don't share your country! The other moral is implicitly understood in history: give your country to whomever you want; but don't expect it to make you happy.

Number of participants: 17.

* Passion - Directed by Orlando Forioso

The Passion is a popular show, whose interest lies in the fact that it brings together many people, non-professionals, around a tradition firmly rooted in the collective memory.

As every year, we do not hesitate to modify / enrich the text, so that the interest of the actors and the public is always renewed.

L'ultimu amore / The end of the dream : Sixth theatrical episode of Orlando Forioso's project: LES BONAPARTE, A CORSICAN FAMILY - Scientific advisor Jean-Marc Olivesi

With Giovanni Pacini - Bastianu Brighi - Pauline Bonaparte Borghese - Marie-Paule Franceschetti: Letizia Ramolino- Bonaparte - Music: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Costumes: Costumeria Capricci de Livorno

and René-Marie Acquaviva - Photos: Silvio Siciliano - Direction: Orlando Forioso

A TeatrEuropa production in Corsica in co-production with the City of Ajaccio, the Maison Bonaparte - Ajaccio, the SCN Malmaison - Paris. With the support of the Community of Corsica

This sixth episode is dedicated to Tuscany, Italy, Music and Love. Pauline Bonaparte was considered the most beautiful woman in Europe of her time. Canova, moreover, left us the extraordinary sculpture which represents her, and which can be seen at the Villa Borghese in Rome.

This woman, who had at her feet, and not only at her feet, more men than any other, devoted the last part of her life to the love she conceived for a young musician. : Giovanni Pacini. Giovanni Pacini, a young composer, born in Catania by chance and died in Pescia, was famous from an early age, in the theatrical world, for his works. He was very handsome.

An unbalanced emotional relationship will quickly break out between the princess and the musician. They will both live in Villa Paolina in Viareggio, built for the sole purpose of housing their crazy and impossible love. A senseless and tormented love, which will be the last for Princess Pauline.

The show closely mixes the lives of three generations: the more than forty-year-old Pauline, the almost eighty-year-old Letizia, and the young Giovanni, says Nino, who is barely twenty-five years old. And on all hovers the shadow of Napoleon.

The show is performed in Corsican, French and Italian.

Un dieu, un animal: based on the novel by Jérôme Ferrari - Adaptation and staging: Julien Fišera - With Ambre Pietri and Martin Nikonoff

The story takes place today: a young man returns home to Corsica after a short military mission in the Middle East. He sets out in search of his childhood love. But Magali, who works as a headhunter for a large group and for whom the violence of human relationships is also the daily lot, can do nothing about what the young man has become.

Written in the second person singular, the novel weaves a double narrative: that of the young man and that of Magali. Together, these two sons portray a French youth of today. In a powerful and bright language, Jérôme Ferrari ventures into adulthood and describes the violence that is inflicted on this youth. How to register in this world that does not reach out to us? How to love in a violent world? The show, presented as close as possible to the public and carried by two young actors, revolves around the question of commitment but also of hope. This feeling that does not leave us at rest and that constantly pushes us to seek to surpass ourselves. The hope that things can change again.

In Filetta / Constantinople: "Clair-obscur" , a musical creation that will be given in September during the 32nd Rencontres de Chants Polyphoniques.

Constantinople is a musical ensemble that has chosen to make travel its foundation - geographical, historical, cultural, inland travel - to drink from all sources and to aim at distant horizons. Borrowing its name from the ancient flagship city illuminating the East and the West, the ensemble was conceived as a space for encounters and interbreeding by its artistic director Kiya Tabassian and founded in 1998 in Montreal.

Constantinople joins the A Filetta polyphony ensemble to create an enchanting soundtrack where light and darkness meet through sacred and profane songs of European and Persian tradition.

Corsican polyphonies sung by the singers of A Filetta on compositions by Jean-Claude Acquaviva, as well as Persian singing and scholarly music orchestrated by Kya Tabassian will be on hand, for a deeply upsetting concert.

Constantinople Ensemble: Kiya Tabassian (vocals and Setar), Patrick Graham (percussion), Didem Başar (kanun), Tanya La Perrière (love viola and baroque violin)

A Filetta: Jean-Claude Acquaviva - François Aragni - Dumè Bianco - Petr'Antò Casta - Paul Giansily - Maxime Vuillamier.

1st period of residence: February 2020

2nd period: May 2020: canceled

3rd period: September 2020

La lune des baies mûres : a production by the company Acrobatica Machina, written and directed by Lauriane Goyet, with Naéma Boudoumi and Vanina Benisty.

At the heart of a scenography on wheels, moving and changing, spectators are invited to travel from painting to painting, discovering the adventures of Sol, a reckless and curious little girl. Each painting leads them into the twists and turns of his mind, his mythology, his fears, his dreams, his doubts and his hopes.

But who to talk to when the adults are too big and the little ones too small to understand? Luckily Mani is there, quiet and attentive. But for how long?

This show will be offered during the youth literature book fair: À libro apertu, in one of the rooms of Fort Charlet.

• White and blonde hair snack:

In December 2019, we welcomed in the internship, 2 middle school students, students of the 3rd grade: we asked them to make us proposals, which we would have put in the program. One of these proposals was implemented as early as January 2020. The students of the theater workshops, of which our two trainees are part, asked members of the Svegliu Calvese, to lead a pastry workshop, of which they would have been the participants.

The workshop took place on Saturday, January 25: led by 2 "pairs", it made: a cake, two chocolate rolls, chestnut flour cakes, meringues, and finally something to satisfy the appetites of all our guests (children and adult trainees, members) who were hurrying to La Poudrière on Sunday 26 January.

• School Interventions / CEL (February 18 and 19):

As part of the artistic activities, developed by the Children's Center of the city of Calvi, during the February holidays, U Svegliu Calvese was brought to take part in theater workshops, led by Vanina Benisty

The interventions lasted 2 days. They took place at La Poudrière for an audience of about twenty children .

• B D in Balagne : this is a collaboration with the Una Volta cultural center in Bastia, and more particularly with their comics festival in Bastia.

This festival, which is in its 27th edition, will take place from April 2 to 5.

For several years now, U Svegliu Calvese has partnered with the Una Volta cultural center, and each year it receives one of the guest authors. Thus, he will receive Margaux Othats, who will come to Calvi, on April 6 and 7, to present 2 books: "The hunt" for students of GS and Cp, and "A summer night" for students of 8 to 11 years.

The students she will meet will have previously received information about the work of Margaux Othats, information that will be given to them by facilitators of the Svegliu Calvese.

• Interventions at the Campanari school :

A class from the Campanari school designed a theatrical project in the Corsican language, for which the collaboration of Svegliu Calvese, and more particularly that of Orlando Forioso, was requested. This is the CM class of Mr. Christophe Ciccoli. The school received funding for 75 hours of intervention, which include the presentation of the play at the Théâtre de Bastia on June 20, 2020. Action postponed to the next school year.

• Theater Festival for teenagers : "Seeds": May 30/31 - June 1:

For many years, theater workshops have been attended by teenagers who follow them diligently.

Apart from participating in the "E Teatrale" festival, our students do not have the opportunity to be confronted with other theatrical experiences: that is why U Svegliu Calvese decided to organize a theater festival only for an audience of teenagers. For this year, it would take place over 3 days and bring together local companies such as Alibi Theater, or Locu Teatrale which conducts specific work with young people. Reported.

• Publication of Chekhov texts :

After translating “The Marriage Proposal,” and “The Bear,” after offering this first play to an ever-enthusiastic audience, we decided that this work should be published, so that students, from the 3rd can benefit from a well-made literary material: André Markowicz, who led the translation workshop will present the work, Dominique Bianconi, secretary of the association will explain the philosophy.

• Corsican language and culture : this is the project designed for the Language Festival, "Trees, plants and poetry"

With this project, U Svegliu Calvese pursues a double goal:

To honor the Corsican language in its relation to the land, and to art;

Extend its scope of dissemination to a very diverse audience.
