A classic tragedy transforms into a theatrical celebration full of humor, passion, and love for the theatre
Phèdre! is a playful reinterpretation of Racine’s tragedy in the form of a monologue. With the engaging tone of a passionate lecturer, performer Romain Daroles guides us through the tragic story with humor and vitality, weaving together the beauty of the verse and the power of universal emotions. Director François Gremaud transforms the classic into a theatrical celebration that both moves and entertains, reminding us that theatre is a living, shared act.
