As part of the Thélème cultural season, culture in the countryside at the Château des Bretonnières in Erbrée.

CREATION - After Écume des jours and its immense success in Paris and on tour, the company Les Joues Rouges takes over Bel-Ami in a production with a frenzied rhythm.

Paris, 1880.

A Parisian in a top hat is about to tell us the story of Georges Duroy, "Bel-Ami" for short...

A former non-commissioned officer without money, Georges Duroy arrives in Paris to make his fortune. There he met by chance his former hussar comrade, Charles Forestier, who opened the doors to him of the La Vie Française newspaper, run by the boss Mr. Walter.

Praised to the skies by women, charming and unscrupulous, Georges Duroy blends into a society full of appearances and shenanigans, always seductive in order to better rise above his condition.

“Bel-Ami is a story that has been disturbing since its time. A story whose success has never diminished.
Bel-Ami has all the faults: false, arrogant, profiteer, hypocrite, manipulator... and he is so well constructed that his enthusiasm carries us away, that his rise fascinates us. Bel-ami is a hero that I love to hate.
I would like this thirst for success, this overflowing obsession to dominate on stage, in a sequence of scenes punctuated by an omnipresent pocket watch, by melodies and dances – and even by Bel-Ami, performing Break Dance.
If social ascension were to take a form, it would be that of a pyramid represented on the ground, framing the characters in their most decisive scenes, their confrontations and balance of power. Thus, they are locked in their own game, the one that they have constructed and built, a world where masks and pretenses dominate, which make them puppets excelling in the game of appearances. »
