Spectacle "Mérou"
Theater: "Mérou" performance at the MJC in Rodez—Théâtre des 2 Points, Tuesday, March 16, 2027, at 8:30 p.m.
By Lou Trotignon
Since the M%E9rou is changing genders, why not Lou?
At birth, Lou’s family and the m%E9docins decided that Lou would be a woman, and Lou doesn’t agree with that.
Lou humorously recounts her personal story of transition: from taking testosterone, to stripping, to discovering the queer world.
In doing so, Lou echoes the questions we all ask ourselves: Are we obligated to be what we’ve been told to be? Can we reinvent our bodies and our relationship with love? Would it then be possible to rewrite our own story?
“A show that’s as funny as it is educational, an ode to self-acceptance—bravo to Les Mérous!” —Télérama
