Valspec - Boucar Diouf : Nomo Sapiens

Humans are the animals who push the boundaries of knowledge while proving to the rest of creation that stupidity knows no limits. In these times when artificial intelligence is gradually leading us back to a new form of natural stupidity, Boucar’s fifth show questions the place of our species on this planet. Why are we both so intelligent and so foolish? Is our species really as unique in the animal kingdom as we believe? Are there things we can learn from great apes to improve gender equality in our societies?

Nomo Sapiens — “somewhere between Homo and Nono Sapiens” — is a humorous journey into the strengths and flaws of our great intelligence. If it’s true that dying of laughter is good for brain health, you’ll leave this show with a lighter mind and a full heart.
