Théâtre : Le dindon

By: Feydeau

Directed by: Maryse Estier

Feydeau's play "Le Dindon" revolves around Pontagnac, an inveterate seducer who tries to seduce Lucienne Vatelin, a married woman. She agrees to play along on one condition: she will only cheat on her husband Vatelin if he cheats on her first.

"My intention is to adapt the text somewhat, to tighten the plot around the four main couples (the Vatelins, the Pontagnacs, the Soldignacs, Rédillon and Armandine), and to erase the overly pronounced traces of the 19th century that, in my opinion, wrongly distance these characters from ourselves."
