Abstract:
From Belles de Jazz towards a Feminisation of Theatre ? Focused on Koffi Kwahulé’s theatre, and particularly on his feminine characters present in the plays with tragic tonality, this article shows that the female anti-heroes, with their aggressed body, go beyond the status of objects where the male discourse try to fix them in. All the effects of the plastic, literary and musical inter-text, in this rhapsodic kind of theatre, converge to create a critical distance in front of the explicit violence which mortifies bodies and spirits. The theory defended here is that the bodies of the kwahulean figures are a number of symbolic screen-bodies, a space of projections and performances, which give the possibility to transcend the tragic fatality. This contemporary dramaturgy suggests an aesthetical to and fro movement between the dramatic and the non-dramatic, so as to create a liberating current confronting violence. Keywords: Koffi Kwahulé’s theatre, post-dramatic, violence, rhapsodic theatre, feminism
