About the show:


Arthur and Georges are childhood friends. In a few days, Arthur will be celebrating his 50th birthday, and Georges plans to make it a spectacular occasion for his lifelong friend. Thanks to social media, he's reconnected with Ariane, their inseparable friend from high school, whom they lost touch with after graduation when she decided to take a gap year because, as she so aptly put it, "I need six months of vacation, twice a year!" Ariane agrees to come and reunite their trio, "Les Un Dos Tres," as they were known back then, for one night only! Georges is overjoyed, but this nostalgic evening quickly turns into a nightmare of resentment, settling of scores, and unexpected revelations… much to the delight of the audience!


For the first time at the Avignon Festival!
