«Bless the Sound that Saved a Witch Like Me»
«Bless the Sound that Saved a Witch Like Me» is a physical and sonic solo performance, choreographed by Benjamin Kahn for Sati Veyrunes, that takes the audience through different states. Trance, resistance, ecstasy. Immersed in a vibrant soundscape, Sati Veyrunes takes the audience on a journey exploring screams, from the intimate to the collective. Filled with anger, pleasure, or pain, a scream is a powerful act and a tear in space-time, making us hear silence once more. The act of screaming emerges here as a need, an outburst, a protest— a powerful and penetrating expressive tool for everything intolerable, pressing, imperative, and urgent. In this instinctive and cathartic experience, Sati Veyrunes transfigures from one state to another, blurring the limits. Sometimes, she is a mother, a man, a woman, a witch, or an undefined being.
