The couple, love... a promise that seems less and less credible. And at the heart of our disillusionment? Social networks! Forced to create a profile to keep her job, Lou plunges into digital life, a modern drug that brings temporary euphoria one evening, and paranoia the next. Because, like any drug, it offers both pleasure and undesirable side effects, particularly in her love relationships. " Like",Ivan Calbérac's new play, is a funny, dizzying comedy that explores the quest for self through this intoxicating digital world.

Like follows individuals struggling in a world where the quest for virtual recognition takes center stage, modifying their behavior and sometimes their ties with those around them. Humor is at the heart of the plot, but behind each burst of laughter, Ivan Calbérac hides a reflection on our dependence on technology and our need for social validation.

Like is the latest creation from Ivan Calbérac, an author and director renowned for his biting humor and plays that tackle contemporary issues. His most famous play, L'Étudiante et Monsieur Henri, was a huge success and was adapted for the screen in 2015. A prolific creator, he alternates between writing, directing and producing.
