MIX is written as a sort of satirical comedy, a sarcastic revue, based on the questioning of concepts of difference, of mixing and cultural assimilation.
The performance makes use of clichés and preconceived ideas inherant in this questioning and seeks to shake traditionally-held beliefs.
In MIX, the three performers Marvin Clech, Dalila Khatir and Betty Tchomanga engage in role-plays through incarnating, manipulating and dissecting stereotypes linked to this theme in the form of Vaudeville-like acts.
MIX avoids victimhood and attempts to call into question the very concept of living together as a sterile place, where conflicts and confrontations are circumvented to iron out differences.
