Let Babel charm you for a day: you will meet great writers and tongue-mixers, hear the unheard and speak in tongues that were not yours.
On June 18th Wilton’s showcases some of the best living writers from the world over, Aleksandar Hemon, Adam Zagajewski, Ma Jian, Xiaolu Guo, Chloe Aridjis, Philippe Rahmy. But that is not all: Wilton’s welcomes an entire festival.
Babel, a festival of literature and translation, creolization, instability, linguistic hospitality and diversities, leaves the steepest versants of the Swiss alps to reach your favorite Music Hall stage.
This unique border-crossing event will bring you voices and languages, worlds and rhythms, as well as cross art-form projects including a special gig by The Pussywarmers, a live radio broadcast by radiogwen.ch and other side shows.
