16. Manic From The Paris Attacks

Aurelie De Foresta is a 28-year-old French theater artist based out of Lyon and Paris. She speaks about her manic episode in the wake of the Paris terrorist attacks in 2015, and the depression that followed. She improvises three songs about her medication, the ups and downs of life, and a musical suicide note. She notes that working in the theater is already a little bit crazy to begin with, and riffs, “To begin with, when do we begin to work in theater?”
