Théâtre de la Boussole continues "Déconnectés" until June 29, a fast-paced comedy in which four characters must survive an evening without telephones. It promises to be an explosive experience.

In Déconnectés at Théâtre de la Boussole, written by Yanik Vabre, four individuals who have nothing in common find themselves faced with a formidable challenge: to spend an entire evening without their phones.

This comedy promises to shed light on the impact of new technologies on our relationships, our habits and our patience. Between laughter and bizarre situations, the play pokes fun at contemporary foibles with a critical yet benevolent eye.
