Nicole Sigal :
A novelist and playwright, Nicole Sigal is also an actress and a painter (permanent artist at the Claude Lemand gallery, Paris).
Nicole began writing in 1998. Her novels are published by the Editions Denoël and L'Amandier, and her plays by L'Amandier, Crater and La Fontaine (Youth Theatre). She soon received rave reviews from the press for her "happy" and "poetic" style. With a caustic humour which panders to no one, she accurately blends original images which channel violence and fantasies and break certain taboos.
For " Voyage en Cauchemance", she obtained a residency grant from the Ile de France Regional Council in 2008 to write for the company of psychologically disabled actors from the Théâtre Eurydice, a professional theatre which produces plays, decors and costumes, and provides cultural and other services to companies in order to enable "disabled workers" to access the professions of the theatre.
A play bringing together disability and culture, and focusing in particular on schools to help teachers raise pupils' and young people's awareness of disability-related issues. The author creates a link between ESAT EURYDICE and the young people who learn the work in progress of a playwright and are, at the same time, made aware of disability issues.
This "transmission of information" has given rise to writing workshops and meetings with the actors of the EURYDICE company.
A play for all audiences from 10 years of age - families welcome!
