Дата публикации: 26-09-2026 00:00:00

The team of Radio Live returns to Princeton for the fourth time to present a new installment of their fascinating series: Vivantes.Vivantes is a unique stage experience that transcends the boundaries between radio and theater. Conceived by Aurélie Charon and Amélie Bonnin, this hybrid work brings to life the voices of two remarkable young people: Oksana Leuta from Ukraine and Karam Al Kafri from Syria. Through poignant personal accounts, filmed footage, and live drawing, they share their intimate stories and experiences, shaped by war and exile. They offer us a powerful perspective on resilience and commitment. In today’s world, where conflicts and migration are reshaping our reality, Vivantes speaks to the importance of intergenerational transmission in paving the way for better times.“Radio live is a Noah’s Ark. The powerful echo of the world through its inhabitants.” – Marie Plantin (Sceneweb)“A great lesson in resilience and freedom.”– Manuel Piolat Soleymat (La Terrasse)Read a Daily Princetonian review of Radio Live from Seuls en Scène 2024Photo Gallery

Oksana Leuta grew up in Ukraine during the period of crisis that followed the collapse of the Soviet Union. Her parents were teachers, and she decided to study French in Ukraine before pursuing theater studies in France. In 2014, protests broke out, and the people of Kyiv occupied Maidan Square; she joined the medical team, spending weeks helping to organize and manage makeshift hospitals on-site. In recent years, she has worked as a teacher, an actress, and a night manager at a secret techno club in Kyiv that hosts queer parties. Since the start of the Russian invasion and the war, she has worked as a fixer and translator for international journalists, traveling with them close to the front lines to show the war to the world.Karam Al Kafri

Karam Al Kafri grew up in Yarmouk, a city south of Damascus where Palestinian refugees had settled in the 1950s. In 2011, at the age of 18, he was taking his high school exit exams—but that was also the year the Syrian revolution began, and he took part in it from the very first months. His father decided to send him to Moscow to study because life was becoming too dangerous. He spent two years there before being able to join his mother and sister in Marseille. He comes from a politically active, atheist family. He acted in the film Meltem by Basile Doganis, released in March 2019. He currently lives in Toulouse and works as an aerospace software engineer. In February 2025, following the fall of the Syrian regime, he returned to Damascus with some of his family for the first time in 13 years.
