“We are surprised, of course, the entire media and cultural world is surprised,” said Laurent Domingos, co-president of AF&C, Avignon Festival & Companies, the association which coordinates the Off d’Avignon. He is not someone who a priori spoke out on cultural issues, we worked well with the current minister who had shown a lot of interest in the Off, taking into consideration the fact that we were an important platform for the broadcast of the show in France which is not going well at the moment… We hope that it will have the same sensitivity. »
