To the theater!!! Parisian theaters are filled with stories, emotions, unforgettable creations, and not only should one go there, but also take along kids, nieces, nephews, brothers and sisters!! My first strong emotions as a child, then a teenager, occurred at the Comédie Française, the Théâtre de Chaillot, the Lucernaire, the Théâtre de la Ville, the Madeleine (and other I’ve forgotten). It’s a great way to develop one’s imagination, and critical approach. It leads to interrogation and discovery of words in famous texts that can sometimes stay with us for an entire lifetime or simply suddenly open a door …
Lately, I was mesmerized by “Le dernier Jour du Jeûne” written by Simon Abkarian, (Nanterre Amandiers), “Savannah Bay”, staged by Didier Bezace with Emmanuelle Riva and Anne Consigny , at Théâtre de l’Atelier, and “L’Ennemi du Peuple,” staged by Thomas Ostermeier at the Théâtre de La Ville.
