C’est le printemps. Les corps s’échauffent, le soleil brille. Mais la maison brûle. Et partout sur la planète, ça chauffe. Les frontières se referment, les partis se radicalisent. Il y a les armes qui chantent et les charniers à la télé.MAYDAY brûle aussi et aujourd’hui, on pose la danse comme un mur anti-feu face à l’incendie qui se propage, dresse les mots comme un rempart contre l’indolence, anime les corps dans un appel à l’aide, à l’action, à l’amour.MAYDAY lance un appel à contributions pour soutenir la compagnie dans sa mission : créer. Créer des œuvres pour la scène. À la fois préserver les belles braises et combattre l’incendie qui menace.Susciter les débats; poursuivre le combat; célébrer les ébats. Avec chaque don, MAYDAY vous invite à sauver quelque chose ou quelqu’un qui vous est cher :— pour 25 $, sauvez un objet. Sauver un objet, c’est donner la chance aux survivants de reprendre leur vie après la catastrophe.— pour 50 $, sauvez une personne qui vous est chère. Donnez-lui une seconde chance, mais aussi une mission, celle de faire un monde meilleur.— pour 100 $, sauvez un savoir. Sauver un savoir, c’est peut-être préserver l’essence de la créativité humaine, relancer l’utopie, donner l’espoir qu’une suite est possible.— pour 500 $, sauvez la maison MAYDAY. Sauvez nos systèmes de créations. Sauvez une entité qui prône la création libre. Si le mot MAYDAY est un appel, que secourons-nous ? Qui secourons-nous ? Que reste-t-il après le feu ? Qu’est-ce qui, finalement, nous survivra ? — Sauver un objet — l’équipe MAYDAY choisit de sauver une diva cup, une veste d’hiver, une radio, une boîte à bijoux, un petit bol, un tambour, une bague de mariage, de la sauce piquante, des espadrilles, une brosse à dent.— Sauver une personne — l’équipe MAYDAY choisit de sauver le Dalaï-Lama, un père, des filles, un fils, Milo, une mère, une petite sœur, une fiancée.— Sauver un savoir — l’équipe MAYDAY choisit de sauver la démocratie, l’agriculture moderne, un système d’aqueduc, l’anesthésie, le rap des années 80. Nous vous invitons à inscrire les objets, les personnes et les savoirs que vous décidez de sauver de cet incendie (métaphoriquement bien sûr !).Cette campagne finira le 15 juin. Pour toutes questions ou autres dons, contactez <a href="mailto:administration@maydaydanse.ca" target="_blank">administration@maydaydanse.ca</a>
