About
From February 10 to 13, 2027, La Maison des Métallos presents Dyke, a vibrant one-person show by Bili Bellegarde. Through a blend of original compositions and reimagined French variety songs, the artist explores themes of emancipation, intersectionality, and queer friendship with humor and sensitivity. This intimate performance is suitable for ages 12 and up and is fully accessible to wheelchair users as well as blind and visually impaired guests. Whether you are discovering Bili Bellegarde’s work for the first time or are a long-time admirer, this sincere artistic endeavor offers a powerful and moving experience in the heart of Paris.
This intimate and vibrant one-person show explores vulnerability, self-narrative, and the strength of queer friendships.
Between revisited French pop songs and original compositions, the artist makes stories of emancipation and intersectionality heard loud and clear. With wit and tenderness, she shares her journey as a "Chérie FM child," a lesbian, and a class defector.
Without ever giving too much away about the narrative thread, the show blends fragility, humor, and musicality; you leave feeling moved, shaken, and with the sense of having witnessed an artistic gesture of great sincerity. Many of us already loved her. With this show, that admiration transforms into true allegiance.
