In the heart of Paris, the artistic scene is constantly evolving, always offering new plays to discover. Among them, Jean Dell's "Un stylo dans la tête " stands out, programmed every Thursday at 9.30pm at the renowned Théâtre Montmartre Galabru.
The story revolves around Victor Aubrac, a successful author, who decides to invite his close friends to a dinner party unlike any other. The announcement? He has drawn on their intimate stories to write his new play. Such a revelation sends shockwaves through his guests, revealing two neurotic sisters, Victor's ex-girlfriend and a gay friend. Secrets become public knowledge, and the evening turns into a settling of scores. This provocative scenario raises fundamental questions: is it acceptable to mock friends through art without risking losing them? Where does our right to privacy end?
Jean Dell 's reputation is well established. Known for his roles in popular TV series such as " Un Gars, Une Fille " and " Nestor Burma ", he has also made his mark on the cinema under the direction of such greats as Bertrand Blier and Francis Veber. His passion for theater has also led him to write, notably with Gerald Sibleyras. Most recently, in 2022, he starred in " Œdipe is your love " at the Théâtre des Mathurins.
This play is directed by a professional who has worked with leading figures in the Paris theater world. From assistant to Shelly De Vito in 2003 to director in his own right, his career has been marked by fruitful collaborations and diverse experiences, notably with Christophe Glockner and Ned Grujic.
The director's note of intent reveals his desire to highlight the humanity of the characters, despite the play's caustic humor. Despite the comic situations, it's a genuine search for truth, flaws and emotions that lies behind every line.
The cast is just as promising. Zahia Guinchard as Adeline, Geoffroy de Schrevel as Victor and Sacha Uzan as Olga, each actor brings his or her own nuance and depth to the character, further enriching the spectator's experience.
In conclusion,"Un stylo dans la tête" is as much an invitation to reflect as it is to relax. Between laughter and questioning, it's a work that certainly deserves its place in the Parisian cultural landscape. Be sure to book your tickets for an evening where theater meets life, in all its complexity.
