Étoile (TV series). 2025.
Opéra Comique. Salle Favart.
As the lights darkened, as the lights of night brightened,
We would try to imagine them, try to find each other,
To construct peace, to make love, to reconcile
Waking with sleeping, ourselves with each other,
Ourselves with ourselves. We would try by any means
To reach the limits of ourselves, to reach beyond ourselves,
To let go the means, to wake.
Poem (I lived in the first century of world wars), Muriel Rukeyser
