- Part of
- Next Wave 2026 and
- Fall 2026
How do we summon the presence of someone who is gone? Toi, moi, Tituba… is based on a text by French philosopher Elsa Dorlin about Maryse Condé’s heroine Tituba. As a Black woman and so-called witch, Tituba gives a voice to those silenced by force and erased from history. Munyaneza uses her own body as a danced archive, making suppressed voices audible, visible, and tangible again. A multiplicity of voices and perspectives converge in a single body, so no one is forgotten.
