Dominique Chevaucher
Actress, singer
Dominique Chevaucher's career is a story of diverse experiences, and her freedom to go wherever her voice takes her has enabled her to take part in a wide range of artistic projects. Two encounters were decisive in her musical and theatrical career: guitarist Camel Zekri, with whom she created the association Les arts improvisés, organized the "Festival de l'eau", a multi-artistic and cross-cultural gathering, and discovered the theremin; and actress Bénédicte Lafond, with whom she created the Cie De l'une à l'autre. Three other encounters were decisive in her musical development: Annick Nozati, a singer-improviser who accompanied her for two years, and Christine Groult and Marco Marini, teachers and composers at the Conservatoire de Pantin, with whom she trained in electroacoustic music for three years (DEM in 2014).
Since 1996, she has been working with Camel Zekri on improvisation, and has sung in several of the composer's projects(Festival de l'eau, Le cercle, Ishango...). Since 2022, she has been seeking to bring together words, voice and the sounds of theremin and electroacoustics.

Fatou Sy
Author, actress
Fatou Sy holds degrees in Law from the University of Strasbourg and in General and Comparative Literature from the University of Paris 3 Sorbonne-Nouvelle. For the past ten years, she has been working in the world of playwriting. She has always written, and while her choice of writing is not surprising, the fact that she writes only for the theater is more surprising. An art form that came to her out of the blue. "One day, I saw images of characters talking to me, adopting a particular posture and telling a story. It was surreal, but at the same time so obvious that I had to translate this reality into theater, that I didn't ask myself any questions. I wrote my first play Monsieur Nègre in 2012 with a lot of spontaneity and instinct." Since that day, she hasn't stopped, like a revelation. She works with the Ivorian company "Allissô Théâtre" and takes part in creative residencies and festivals in Africa and Europe. Fatou Sy has been selected for the 2022-2023 "Découvertes" program of Les Francophonies - Des écritures à la scène, and is accompanied in her writing project by Koffi Kwahulé.
