Behind closed doors / Avignon Festival OFF

 

  There are three of them, they don't know each other and soon discover that everything is against them. Locked in a small, austere room, they will have to face it together. And for eternity. Because it is in hell that Garcin, Estelle and Inès have just met.


 Duration: 1h30

Author(s): Jean-Paul Sartre

Director: Raphaël Pelissou

With: Emily Berneau, Jean-Marc Dethorey, Betty Pelissou, and the voice of Albert Sezikeye

About the show:


Three characters (Garcin, journalist, Inès, postal worker and Estelle, rich socialite) find themselves in the same room when they die. They don't know each other, come from very different backgrounds, share neither the same beliefs nor the same tastes. In this play, a closed-door trial begins where each of the three characters judges and is judged on the actions that made up their existence. Jean-Paul Sartre describes here “his hell” brilliantly in which there is neither executioner nor instruments of physical torture: “hell is other people”.


Show eligible for CYRANOS 2022 / OFF Success 2019 and 2021
