Le Dindon • Georges Feydeau Aurore Fattier

A delightfully irreverent take on Feydeau, transformed into a queer cabaret. A vibrant and masterful Franco-Belgian cast. A delightfully irreverent take on Feydeau, transformed into a queer cabaret. A vibrant and masterful Franco-Belgian cast. By day, a notary’s office where white-collar workers pretend to be busy. By night, the same people find themselves immersed in a fantastical world populated by drag creatures and liberated bodies. The bourgeois vaudeville is here deconstructed in a cocktail bathed in candy-pink neon lights, leading us to laugh our heads off as much as we break free of restraints. At the helm of this spectacular revamp is Aurore Fattier, director of the Comédie de Caen, who already made a name for herself at the Théâtre National with Hedda. Slamming doors, ringing doorbells, misunderstandings galore: the Feydeau machinery is still intact. But beyond triggering laughs, the director breaks new, political ground: a journey through contemporary sexualities and identities, liberated from fixed notions of gender. The ‘king of vaudeville’ revisited with panache! This show contains sexually explicit images and language.
