Théâtre - Le Technicien - Éric Assous

The play "Le Technicien" by Éric Assous, French playwright nominated several times for a Molière award.

By the Comédie Finnoise, a theater troupe from Fains-Veel in the Meuse region of France.

The plot is classic: Jean-Pierre (Denis Ricci), a wealthy, scrupulous and fickle businessman, has left his wife Séverine (Véronique Bancel) for a younger mistress Victoria (Valérie Merou). Penniless and homeless, he contacts her 25 years later to beg for a job. After careful consideration, she decides to give him a second chance: he'll be a surface technician in charge of housework. Enter Patrice (Patrick Steil), the director of Editions de la Plaine, who intends to win over Séverine while at the same time granting his favors to Celia (Emilie Masson), the secretary; Guillaume (Gary Espert), the hidden son of the CEO and Jean-Pierre, who knows nothing of his paternity; Gaétan (Patrick Razzini), a gay literary assistant; and Lebowski (André Cochin), an author.

This hit play, full of twists and turns, was nominated for a 2011 Molière award in the "Best Comedy Show" category. It's a fearsomely effective modern comedy that has already had over a thousand spectators laughing throughout the Meuse region. An outpouring of truculent situations, misunderstandings and irresistible lines that should not leave our hopefully large audience unmoved.

Payment on site on the evening of the show, by cash or cheque only.
