Dorothée Munyaneza
Mailles
Ruanda / France
Six different biographies, six different voices, six different approaches. This is «Mailles», the latest creation by the France-based Rwandan-British singer, actor, dancer and choreographer, Dorothée Munyaneza.
The fives colleagues sharing the stage with her entered her life at different times. They are from Haiti, Spain, England, Holland and France. Today, Munyaneza says, she can no longer talk about herself without including the other women. In «Mailles» they recount their experiences with song, dance and spoken word, including poetry and flamenco. Their stories deal with violence, exclusion and oppression which intertwine into a collective tale of female power, resistance and survival.
The piece builds on earlier works by Munyaneza, which addressed the genocide in Rwanda or the traumatic experiences of rape victims. However, «Mailles» focuses on the beauty which arises from the mythic power of resistance and allows us to experience the combined might of these six Black women and their stories. (am)
