La Vie secrète des vieux

Mohamed El Khatib

28.05 > 01.06.2024
Theatre – Kunstenfestivaldesarts

No, sex is not slated for obsolescence. An advocate of documentary art, director Mohamed El Khatib continues to bring intimate stories to the stage. In La vie secrète des vieux, we take a closer look at our elders. Participants in the twilight of their lives tell us their love stories. How do you experience love in a worn-out body that alters its vitality day after day? 

A tender and beautiful show that paints a nostalgic picture of our love lives.

Mohamed El Khatib is an associate artist at the Théâtre National Wallonie-Bruxelles
