First tryout of Jaouad Alloul’s new theatrical music performance during his residency at MESTIZO ARTS PLATFORM (Feb. 1 to 17) at Rataplan.
After nine years, he gathered all his courage and returned to his childhood home. How is his relationship with his creator after 9 years? What do his roots mean to him after 9 years and how does he look back on them? On his drug use, his transvestite past, his failed marriage and his infidelity. What mistakes did he make? Not in the eyes of Allah, but in his own eyes. Can he still look himself straight in the eye? Who is his Messiah?
