Spectacle "Fa'a'amu, l'enfant adoptif"
Theater: "Fa'a'amu, the Adopted Child" at the MJC in Rodez—Théâtre des 2 Points, Friday, January 15, 2027, at 8:30 p.m.
By the Les affamés Theater Company
Fa’a’amu, the Adopted Child, is a mother’s cry in response to a letter from her adopted son. A letter of rebellion to which she will respond with her pain, her humor, and her sincerity.
She opens up, quite simply, as she has never done before, as she has never dared to do. Out of modesty, out of fear, or simply by omission? Because some things are hard to say. This letter from her son is the catalyst; it’s time to tell it all, to open her heart, to put into words what has long been kept silent.
An intimate and universal message that speaks to us about the journey toward adoption, infertility, motherhood, love, gratitude, awkward moments, unspoken truths, and life itself.
