Synopsis: Terre Rouge connects exile to the destruction of landscapes altered by resource extraction and aggressive development. The production considers how childhood memories emerge alongside environments that do not provide the same forms of livelihood or cultural continuity. Movement develops as the relationship between community and land is weakened gradually. The production also incorporates Céline Lombardi’s personal history of repeated movement between countries, giving the text a connection to family migration. Its collaboration between Senegalese and European artists reflects the transnational routes examined onstage.
