This cabaret reflects my lifelong interest in popular culture, but more particularly when it is disturbed and disturbing. Enraged and sometimes also enraging. When popular culture acknowledges its cracks and values marginalized individuals. I would like it to be a cabaret of variety that is both disparate and coherent, serious and hilarious, strange and beautiful, playful and profound. Variety of ages and aesthetics: it would bring together different generations of artists close to my work, whether we have already collaborated or whether this project gives us the opportunity to do so. Variety of disciplines: lyrical or grotesque dance, performance, drag show, singing, fake freaks, clownish acts, bungee, pole dance, and contortion. Variety of genders for sure (women, men, non-binary), variety of tones and tempos. This cabaret also aims to pay tribute to all those figures who had enough rage and courage to embrace their strangeness and the fascination they exerted on the public, turning it into an irresistible force: Joséphine Baker, Valeska Gert, Tatsumi Hijikata, Divine, etc.
