With T'embrasser sur le miel, Khalil Cherti transposes his short film of the same name to the stage, turning it into a theatrical work between intimate narrative and poetic engagement. The play follows Siwam and Emad, two young Syrians separated by the conflict, who communicate from a distance by sending each other videos. Rather than documenting the surrounding tragedy, they create improvised performances, transforming their daily lives under the bombs into a space of invention and freedom.
This production explores the power of the imagination in the face of chaos. The protagonists, played by Reem Ali and Omar Aljbaai, transform their correspondence into a form of artistic resistance, questioning memory, loss and the urgency of creating links despite distance and war. The aesthetic mixes theater and video, in a pared-down scenography that reflects the intimacy and cramped nature of their confined spaces.
T'embrasser sur le miel will appeal to fans of contemporary theater and stage experimentation, as well as to those sensitive to topical stories and hybrid forms. Somewhere between drama and poetry, T'embrasser sur le miel promises an immersive and deeply moving experience, where art becomes a refuge from the violence of the world.
