Didier Ruiz
Factory workers, teenagers, researchers, former convicts, transgender people: Didier Ruiz's main preoccupation is to meet the actors of society and to give them an active part in his politically engaged creations by giving them an “accompanied voice.” So are born his shows, from the trust in each other thus earned and the word thus freed to be heard and shared. The stories he builds with and for others carry the political and sacred weight of the dramatic act: “to make the audience see and hear a shared humanity.” Didier Ruiz was previously invited to create 2014 as possibilities with youths from Avignon for the 69th edition of the Festival.
