Festival contes givrés - Pekâne
Saturday 10 October 2026
A show staged as part of the Contes Givrés festival in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté.
Thierno Diallo:
Little by little, the bird weaves its nest. A worthy heir to his grandmother, Rama Touré - a woman of character from Waloo - and his father, Mamadou Diallo, Thierno speaks with a vibrant, deep voice of Africa, its history and his dream of freedom. With a wit that captivates, stuns, unsettles, sweeps you away and throws you off balance, Thierno Diallo brings to life these stories - at once understated and profound - which remain as relevant as ever.
The epic tale of Balla Dieri originates from the Toucouleur community, which lives along the River Senegal and has traditionally relied on fishing and agriculture. Yet the river is receding, many species of fish have disappeared, and the art of river fishing can no longer be passed on to the younger generation. Thierno explores the difficulty of being both welcomed and rejected. He speaks to us of the weight of society on individual choices, of the younger generations’ desire for change, and of love that transcends borders...
Suitable for all ages from 11 years old.
