The slow and difficult agony of the buffo toad on the patriarchal pedestal

Description

A radio studio. Three intellectuals. A discussion about gender relations. Nothing extraordinary on paper. But on December 4, 2021, in the program "Répliques" on France Culture, there was an exchange that was as fascinating as it was insightful. On one side, philosopher Camille Froidevaux-Metterie, an important figure in contemporary feminist thought. On the other side, essayist Jean-Michel Delacomptée. The focus is on a debate about developments in relationships between women and men, current societal upheavals, and the resistance they provoke. With this theatrical reenactment, Akté transforms a moment from the radio into a real stage work. Words, arguments, silences, and tensions take shape before our eyes. Between the confrontation of ideas, the clash of different worldviews, and the theater of reality, the piece plunges us into a debate that goes far beyond the studio and continues to permeate our society.
