Oasis love

"As if to speak is already to riot.". For author and director Sonia Chiambretto, the poetic driving force behind her play Oasis Love lies in the meaning of the word "riot", literally: "to create emotion".

Why does the appearance of the forces of law and order on the outskirts of big cities always or almost always provoke, in a flight reflex, the running of the young people who live there, and in the same movement, the running of the police? With Oasis Love, Sonia Chiambretto poses this question as the starting point for her show, a resolutely hybrid form born of a long process of documentation, investigation and writing on the ambiguity of our relationship to authority.Oasis Love explores the poetic power of the chase, of exaltation, of exhausted bodies. That of a youth that runs and finds its breath and freshness in that thing that makes the world go round: love. Before our very eyes, a space is constructed where the rules of living together are brazenly reinvented, revealing something like the sensitive atlas of a large ensemble gradually becoming a futuristic oasis.
