The show is part of a programme in collaboration with ‘La Francia in Scena’ (France on Stage). La Francia in Scena is an artistic event promoted by the Institut Français Italia and was made possible by the French embassy in Italy, thanks to the support of the Institut Français and of the Fondazione Nuovi Mecenati.
«The original title of my reaserch was Conversation — tells Mohamed El Khatib —, I was considering the switch from the mother toungue language (Arab) to the language of theatre, through some interviews carried out with my mother. Her passing away on February 20, 2012 has completely altered my plans. The show Finir en beauté (To finish in beauty) tries to explore the different modalities in dialogue starting from the definition of the term “ruin”: the ruins of a relationship, of a story, of a passage and of whatever is left of ourselves».
