Show Details

Presented as a solo-performance, a woman is afraid to give birth to a daughter. She questions the origins of this fear—how does one become a woman? She remembers her breasts at the age of 11. 

The desire for breasts and their absence, the models of femininity in magazines, on TV, in society, crystallize this belief. She then takes us on a journey with her. This quest for breasts becomes an excuse to dive into the cultural imagination, all the things we ingest without realizing it, which reveal a lot about the society in which we grow up and influence even our intimacy, our relationship to the body, to sexuality, and to others.

Between stand-up and theatrical drama, the text breaks the fourth wall and aims to be direct and authentic.
