Presentation

A provocation would designate the fact of calling something vocatio before someone pro-. Any theatre action can therefore be assimilated with a provocation in its political meaning: starting from the moment when someone in the light speaks and someone in the shade listens to him, political theatre already exists, at least its first stage. The question for this actors collective will be to think about how to go further, considering the place where they are, a Swiss city, and what they are: young professionals getting ready to leave school to follow their vocation. They will begin by going to meet this polis (city) to which and from which they want to speak. They will try to define its contours and how its different communities function. Next will come the time to take the floor and with it, the time to take on responsibilities.
