● The School for wives
The version of Nicolas Rigas, actor, opera singer and director of the Theatre of the little world, is so original that it mixes the classic Molière a few tunes from Tales of Hoffmann , making a link between Arnolphe and the devils Offenbach, Agnes and the women of the opera (Olympia, Antonia, Giulietta). It works wonderfully, thanks to good distribution and staging removed. The genius of Molière does the rest. «On the side of the beard is the all-powerful»? The author of Precious ridiculous has not waited for the movement #MeToo and Time’s up to take advantage of women.
» At the Théâtre Dejazet, 41 boulevard du Temple (Iiird). From the 1st to the 31st of December.

let’s face it, as soon as the one fell on the superb Hamlet embodied by Gaël Giraudeau, firm voice, and sensitivity, there has been a tendency to follow him.

You can sit along the walls. Not fatigue. One hour and twenty-five of emotion.

● Instant
For their new association, Jean Bellorini and Camille de La Guillonnière hold of In search of lost time the childhood of the author, his relationship with his mother and the mother of his mother. One sometimes has the impression of touching the most secret paths of thought, of sensitivity. Going to the more intimate, the more precise, they are going to be universal. Going to the most unexpected, they make us go through Proust, and lead each one to his own experiences. Very strange «moment».

● Talk about something else
What a strange sect can become a class of Terminus-The well welded. A young man is due to the resistance in the middle of a sisterhood of eight girls. They compare their daily lives to tables antique. At an age where one navigates between doubts poignant and certainties steadfast, the rebellion seems to be the only way accepted to adulthood. But do they know against who, against what? Mosanto, Breaking Bad , Goldman Sachs? Once again at the helm of a text choir Léonore Confino, Catherine Schaub makes vibrate the body of the teen’s choreography refreshing. Despite a few blunders, these bits of voices scattered form quickly a beast collective and revolted, which celebrates and bury the youth. The waltz is well led by the talented Elise Louesdon.
» At the Théâtre Tristan Bernard, 64 rue du Rocher (Viii). Up to 31 December.
