About pastoral

The pastoral is a traditional kind of play from the Basque Country held in the region of Soule, France. It features a set range of characters and acts repeated on all pieces. This kind of theatre represents a dualism between the wicked and the righteous. On every new creation, a different story is staged, where verses are recited in Zuberoan Basque by the players following a pre-established stance and steps on the scene. Singing and dance play an important role too, the performance actually culminating with a choral staging where the collective spirit is voiced. The development of the story is supported by a brass-band and/or the xirula and the psalterium (ttun-ttun).
