SECRET MOURNINGS

26 Mar

7 Rue Jean de Dormans, 02200 Soissons

Yann, Coralie, Soheil and Bilal are facing forms of grief that are unusual and difficult to recognise or express. Each is dealing with a unique loss: Yann secretly mourns a former lover; Coralie and Soheil must come to terms with the loss of a child who never really existed; and Bilal questions his lack of connection to a country he has never known. They are all experiencing invisible grief, outside the usual frameworks. Together, they set sail on a yacht for a symbolic journey to an island, to pay tribute to Bilal’s parents. But the boat, with no wind or fuel, drifts aimlessly, forcing them to confront their buried wounds. The story thus explores the theme of grief in unconventional ways, showing how ‘illegitimate’ or invisible losses can leave a deep mark on individuals. A true epic of the personal, the play is a vibrant tribute to the sincere friendships that spark the conversations which change everything.
