Atavi-G AMEDEGNATO, enquiring Togolese actor-Storyteller in artistic orality for the revalorization of the immaterial cultural inheritances. Research which led to the "Theatre of Recycled" SUCCESS OF RECYCLED `` Nothing arrives to the man without the word, neither in good, nor in evil; neither peace neither the war, neither love neither hatred, neither the marriage neither divorce, neither joy nor misfortune. That which says that to speak is nothing, it is that itself is nothing `` The theatre of recycled is a technique of artistic transformation and exploitation of the obsolete elements of a culture. It takes part in the conservation and the valorization of the immaterial cultural inheritance whose tale is the axis here of it. It allows, the rebuilding of the ways of life, to educate, inform and divert. The theatre of recycled takes as a starting point the the technique to tell, of the art of the traditional griot of Africa which largely contains theatricalness, the poeticity, the song, the dance to which the sets of children are added here. The technique thus requires a plural quality of actor, of storyteller (main of the word), of musician and artist. The stress is laid on the spoken language but also the gestural one, the rates/rhythms and a consequent physical condition to lead to a setting spaces tale which is not separated therefore the traditional technique to tell. Here and it is what makes the characteristic of it, the narration exists but is divided between the (s) actor (s) and the spectators, thus creating a very exceptional relationship with the public. It gets to the African spectator the feeling of good - to be enabling him to reach its natural balance for the total expression of its capacities of action and creativity. It then seems a powerful means of awakening of a population for her efficient and effective participation in the improvement of its living conditions. The theatre of recycled wanting to be an approach of a African theatre is done with-delà.de the its role of pure distraction and the participation which it generates within the public, a social discharge system with the manner of taken care African. It is a total spectacle. Storyteller - Ziguidi! Public - Gaskia! Storyteller - If the mouth did not say it Public - is not with the axe to split it Storyteller - I thus will speak Public - Speaks!
