Phèdre!
The play that became a huge theatrical success beyond its borders
The play that became a huge theatrical success beyond its borders
Phèdre! It is an original stage proposal that revisits the classic tragedy of Jean Racine with humor, passion and a large dose of complicity with the public. Directed by François Gremaud, this singular version is constructed as a monologue with a single interpreter, with the energy of a passionate lecturer, in its guide through the dramatic and poetic resolutions of the work, without losing the somriure nor the sentit of the play.
The show highlights the musicality of Alexander and the great themes of tragedy—impossible love, guilt, design and destiny—to make them accessible and proper. Lluny de l’academicisme, Phèdre! It is a celebration of theater with a live broadcast space, capable of exciting and entertaining at the moment.
Amb senzillesa and enthusiasm, the work invites you to rediscover a classic through a contemporary look, intended to resonate in the present with intelligence and humanity.
