Le Misanthrope is one of the highlights of Molière's entire oeuvre. For Les Malins Plaisirs, this play represents “a moment”, when a company, having reached a certain degree of maturity and experience, feels able to bring to the stage one of the greatest texts in the repertoire, to take it on in all its complexity, and perhaps even to reveal aspects of it not usually taken into account.
Le Misanthrope is the pleasure of precise, refined language. With Molière, it is always the skilful interweaving of humor and depth that produces the power of his theater and constitutes the essential difficulty of its interpretation. Added to this, in this case, is the permanent and remarkable ambiguity of the main characters - an ambiguity that it is essential to preserve. The show is a success when every spectator feels like kissing and slapping both Alceste and Célimène!
"I want us to be sincere, and as men of honor, I don't want us to drop a word that doesn't come from the heart.
“And it's folly of the second to want to meddle in correcting the world”.
“There are many places where full frankness would become ridiculous and would not be permitted”.
By Molière, directed by Vincent Tavernier, set by Claire Niquet, costumes by Erick Plaza-Cochet, lighting by Carlos Perez with Laurent Prévôt, Pierre-Guy Cluzeau, Marie Loisel, Anne-Fanny Kessler, Jeanne Bonenfant, Benoît Dallongeville, Olivier Berhault, Quentin-Maya Boyé, Nicolas Rivals.
