Un spectacle touchant.
I really enjoyed the bilingual weaving between languages.
Paul est un conteur chaleureux.
The show made laugh and made me think how the patriarchy marks everyone negatively in different ways.
Performed in fluent Franglais (and the performance I saw had English open captions), this show is part story-telling, part therapy session, psychology class, sociology class, and martial arts thrown in to boot. Paul Shanker De Tourreil made me laugh and made me cry. At the request of the artist: No spoilers, but I will say that experiencing this show is a step toward emotional growth. Highly recommended!
