"Big Mother", Mélody Mourey's latest creation, is set against a searingly topical backdrop, as a major political scandal in the United States draws a team of journalists from "New York Investigation" into a complex investigation. The play, which lasts 1h40, plays Tuesday to Saturday at 9pm, with a Sunday matinee at 3pm, offering an intense and thoughtful theatrical experience.
The story begins with a scandal involving the President of the United States and the editorial staff of "New York Investigation". Julia Robinson, one of the journalists, is particularly affected when, during a trial, she thinks she recognizes her former partner, presumed dead four years earlier, in the dock. This disturbing coincidence launches Julia and her team on an investigation that brings them face to face with a program of mass manipulation on an unprecedented scale. Their journey brings them face to face with the biggest scandal since Watergate, threatening both democracy and their own safety.
Mélody Mourey's direction, praised for its dynamism and ability to skillfully blend theater, cinema and TV series, creates a show that promises to be captivating. The actors, alternating between Patrick Blandin, David Marchal, Ariane Brousse, Laetitia Vercken, Benoît Cauden, Axel Huet and others, embody a diversity of characters in this story of disinformation, conspiracy theories and manipulation.
Mélody Mourey, renowned for previous works such as"Les Crapauds fous" and"La Course des géants", continues to establish herself as a significant voice in contemporary theater with"Big Mother". Her talent for weaving captivating narratives that resonate deeply with current concerns is evident in this play, which has no shortage of humor despite its serious subject matter.
