Bord Plateau is our new podcast:
In each episode, artists and playwrights join us to reflect on the shows they’ve just presented on our stage. Throughout these conversations, they share their inspirations, their beliefs, and their perspectives on theater.
Extend your experience of the Experimental Stage by listening to the people who bring it to life!
In an intimate and humorous one-woman show, Tchoko (performed in April 2026 at the Scène de Recherche), Olivia Mabounga examines the way racialized bodies are perceived and the pressure that has shaped them for several generations. In doing so, she deconstructs a system where appearance is dictated by norms inherited from colonization and patriarchy, and reveals the strength needed to break free from it and find one’s place.
We’ve chosen to feature her in this first episode of “Bord Plateau.”
