A unique day in the life of the homeless, stateless, workers, single mothers and other destitute people who file into the makeshift welfare centre set up in the Cour d\u2019honneur. For the duration of the performance, the Palais des papes becomes a place of hospitality struggling to take on a human face. This is the territory inhabited by the characters of this adaptation by the current director of the Centre dramatique national de Saint-Denis, whose theatre ceaselessly tries to capture life within the human comedy. Fifteen everyday heroes whose stories intertwine to show in stark relief the dysfunctions of our society. Characters who invite us to follow them and to step through the fourth wall the way one must see through a fantasy to find reality again.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1392\" height=\"929\" src=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Welfare2C20Julie20Deliquet20C2A920Louise20Quignon_0.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Welfare2C20Julie20Deliquet20C2A920Louise20Quignon_0.jpeg 1392w, https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Welfare2C20Julie20Deliquet20C2A920Louise20Quignon_0-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Welfare2C20Julie20Deliquet20C2A920Louise20Quignon_0-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Welfare2C20Julie20Deliquet20C2A920Louise20Quignon_0-768x513.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1392px) 100vw, 1392px\" \/>\n\t\t\t<figcaption>\n\t\t\t<p>Welfare, Julie Deliquet \u00a9 Louise Quignon<\/p>\n\t\t<\/figcaption>\n\t<\/figure>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<ul><li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/festival-avignon.com\/en\/edition-2023\/programme\/baldwin-and-buckley-at-cambridge-331887#section-infos\"><em>Baldwin and Buckley at Cambridge\u00a0<\/em>&#8211; Elevator Repair Service (ERS)<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul><p><strong>United States \/ Creation 2021<br \/>\nJuly 7 &#8211; 11\u00a0(in English with French titles)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p><em>Is the American Dream at the expense of the American Negro?\u00a0<\/em>This question was posed to the writer James Baldwin and to conservative thinker William F.
