Current Projects (2024-25)
Honig, شمس & de l’Or
The project aims to develop a touring model of ‘translation in the act’, using local actors for creative live translation that is artistically integrated into the production.
‘Honey, Sun and Gold’ is a monodrama written by Yasser Abu Shakra, acted and directed by Remi Sarmini, and produced in Tunisia in 2021. Inspired by Hector Malot’s novel ‘Sans famille’, the play is transposed into today’s reality by Syrian author, director, and actor Remi Sarmini to recount his flight from Syria in 2016 to escape the war, and his wanderings around the world to find a safe place to live and work. His quest relates both to his ‘minority status’ as a migrant and refugee and to his sexual orientation and the impossibility of living his love openly. The loss of a home and a loved one creates a bridge between ‘the two Remis’ and brings humour and a poetic distance to this highly emotional autobiographical piece.
The production will be taken to Paris and Berlin in two different versions, incorporating French and German with a local actor or actress.
