THÉÂTRE - Molière et ses masques · Compagnie Le K

At a breakneck pace, six performers switch from one role to another, playing Molière and his entire troupe.

A comedy about the life and death of France’s most famous playwright, which harks back to Molière’s early days: a travelling troupe arrives in a village, sets up a stage on trestles, and vanishes into the wild the very next day.
With minimal resources yet boundless energy, the performers celebrate the audacity and poetry of theatre, driven by the power of the collective.

Amidst laughter and irreverence, this open-air play explores the artist’s place in the face of those in power, weaving a political fable that is as subtle as it is powerful!

Bonus: Come and have a drink or a bite to eat at the campsite snack bar, open before and after the show.
