La Culotte , written by playwright Jean Anouilh in 1978, is now on view at Théâtre Montparnasse, directed by Émeline Bayart. An opportunity to discover or re-discover this committed 20th-century play .
Jean Anouilh's play premiered at the Théâtre de l'Atelier, and was revived by Emeline Bayart 2023 at the Théâtre de l'Athénée in a new staging. In this denunciatory comedy, women take power and wish to emasculate all men suspected of phallocracy. In a three-act comedy punctuated by song, we witness a terrifying yet funny war of the sexes, in which farce plays an important role.
La Culotte is one of Jean Anouilh 'sPièces farceuses , the playwright's habit of organizing his works into thematic series. Like Pauvre Bitos - Le dîner de têtes, Jean Anouilh denounces the vices of society, such as carelessness and superficiality.
La Culotte by Jean Anouilh, directed by Émeline Bayart, can be seen at Théâtre Montparnasse until June 30 .
