  • YANA MEERZON This Essay Examines the Forms of History and Memory Representation in Incendies, the 2004 Play by Wajdi Mouawad, An
    YANA MEERZON STAGING MEMORY IN WAJDI MOUAWAD ’S INCENDIES : ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE OR POETIC VENUE ? This essay examines the forms of history and memory representation in Incendies , the 2004 play by Wajdi Mouawad, and its 2010 film version, directed by Denis Villeneuve. Incendies tells the story of a twin brother and sister on the quest to uncover the mystery of their mother’s past and the silence of her last years. A contemporary re-telling of the Oedipus myth, the play examines what kind of cultural, collective, and individual memo - ries inform the journeys of its characters, who are exilic children. The play serves Mouawad as a public platform to stage the testimony of his child - hood trauma: the trauma of war, the trauma of exilic adaptation, and the challenges of return. As this essay argues, when moved from one medium to another, Mouawad’s work forces the directors to seek its historical and geographical contextualization. If in its original staging, Incendies allows Mouawad to elevate the story of his personal suffering to the universals of abandoned childhood, to reach in its language the realms of poetic expres - sion, and to make memory a separate, almost tangible entity on stage, then the 2010 film version by Villeneuve turns this play into an archaeological site to excavate the recent history of a single war-torn Middle East country (supposedly Lebanon), an objective at odds with Mouawad’s own view of theatre as a venue where poetry meets politics. Naturally the transposition from a play to a film presupposes a significant mutation of the original and raises questions of textual fidelity.

No se lo arranca uno fácilmen- te” escribe Wajdi Mouawad. “Solamente las palabras tienen el poder de arrancarlo y calmar así la quemadura.” Wajdi Mouawad En el transcurso de los últimos veinte años, Wajdi Mouawad se ha destacado tanto en Canadá como en Europa gracias al vigor de su palabra y a la singularidad nítida de su estética teatral.

    Du 9 au 19 novembre 2011 DES FEMMES LES TRACHINIENNES / ANTIGONE / ÉLECTRE Sophocle Texte français Robert Davreu Mise en scène Wajdi Mouawad GRANDE SALLE Dossier pédagogique « Le scarabée est un insecte qui se nourrit des excréments d’animaux autrement plus gros que lui. Les intestins de ces animaux ont cru tirer tout ce qu’il y avait à tirer de la nourriture ingurgitée par l’animal. Pourtant, le scarabée trouve, à l’intérieur de ce qui a été rejeté, la nourriture nécessaire à sa survie grâce à un système intestinal dont la précision, la finesse et une incroyable sensibilité surpassent celles de n’importe quel mammifère. De ces excréments dont il se nourrit, le scarabée tire la substance appropriée à la production de cette carapace si magnifique qu’on lui connaît et qui émeut notre regard : le vert jade du scarabée de Chine, le rouge pourpre du scarabée d’Afrique, le noir de jais du scarabée d’Europe et le trésor du scarabée d’or, mythique entre tous, introuvable, mystère des mystères. Un artiste est un scarabée qui trouve, dans les excréments mêmes de la société, les aliments nécessaires pour produire les œuvres qui fascinent et bouleversent ses semblables. L’artiste, tel un scarabée, se nourrit de la merde du monde pour lequel il œuvre, et de cette nourriture abjecte il parvient, parfois, à faire jaillir la beauté. » Wajdi Mouawad 2 TEXTE SOPHOCLE MISE EN SCENE WAJDI MOUAWAD Du 9 au 19 novembre 2011 DES FEMMES LES TRACHINIENNES / ANTIGONE / ÉLECTRE Avec Pierre Ascaride Bertrand Cantat en alternance avec un autre musicien Olivier Constant
