Tête-à-Texte

Dr. Jean Brager directed four students (Bari James Bellard, Antoine Barriere, and Linsey Shubert, Loyola students; and Luke Condzal, Tulane student) in a montage of monologues and scenes from the French and Francophone repertoire during two evenings in April 2016. The scenes led the audience behind the curtain, behind the façade of acting, and behind what is really at play onstage: the subtext of emotions. When art becomes deconstruction, life--and any action on or off stage, for that matter--is essentially performative.
