Notes et fragments Du 11 au 14 mars à Maubeuge, après Mons où le festival avait débuté, Via offrait une belle série de spectacles qui ouvrent les frontières du théâtre. Et une formidable exposition, Dancing machine, à retrouver au festival Exit à Créteil. Les gens du Nord ont dans le cœur le soleil qu’ils n’ont pas dehors, prétendait une fameuse chanson d’Enrico Macias. A ceci près que quelques rayons pré-printaniers ont réchauffé les derniers jours du festival Via à Maubeuge, force est de confirmer le cliché. Le sens de l’accueil, s’il compte dans l’art d’accommoder la culture, ne serait que poudre aux yeux s’il ne faisait que masquer une programmation de seconde zone. L’attente était également forte avec Capital confiance, création commune des compagnies Transquinquennal et TOC. Et un coup de cœur pour finir.
