Headlining the festival, as part of a world tour, is acclaimed performing artist Yael Rasooly in her puppetry musical tour de force Edith and Me. Yael’s work has garnered rave reviews in the New York Times, The Guardian, and Télérama France, with accolades in over 30 countries, she is bringing her virtuosic vocals and puppetry skills to Stratford. In this moving piece she “single-handedly” plays villains and heroes, delving into the aftermath of violence and the decision to stay silent or speak out. This play presents, with warmth and humor, one woman’s incredible struggle to reclaim her life and voice through art, with the inspiring force of a legendary woman and singer, Edith Piaf.
