Acclaimed author Wajdi Mouawad will be joined by his dear friend, actress and singer Jane Birkin, for a special reading of his work.
When Birkin and Mouawad first met, they immediately shared a strong bond of mutual respect and admiration, both as artists and humanitarians. Birkin and Mouawad will read Mouawad’s The Sentinel—a personal work written for Birkin—among other pieces.
In English & French with English supertitles.
