Politics of the company: The artistic commitment for the interbreeding and the cultural variety
" I am going to write a novel without which the action will take place three-th century before Christ, because I feel the need to go out of the modern world, where my feather too much had a quick dip and which moreover tires me as much to reproduce that it disgusts me to see. "
Here is how expressed himself Gustave Flaubert in a correspondence with Miss Leroyer in March, 1857, before beginning Salammbô's writing.
By reusing the process of the temporal relocation, but by throwing this Salammbô in the future, Cie Rock Line Opéra has for objective to convey a peace message, and especially a message of hope. Indeed, we know today which is the international situation, the Israeli-Palistinian conflict makes of new died every day, Africa is torn by numerous ethnic conflicts, and day after day, the west and the east seem to lock itself into an antagonism more and more hard. . In the center of these conflicts one finds in a recurring way the religious and ethnic intolerance. Through Salammbô Musical, Cie Rock Line Opera wants at first to bring a peace message: for a very good reason, the troop consists of artists of different religions (Christians, Moslems, Jews), but also of cultures and different social previous history. They bring through their collaboration magnificent one example that the respect for the difference of the other one is not only possible, but still source of one truth wealth. Cie Rock Line opera also wants to bring a message of hope, by throwing " Salammbô " in the future, to throw as well a future reassuring world, where the difference is not any more a problem.
