Description

Presented by La Scala Paris Producer: Les Petites Heures SAS (License No.: 1115542) If You Leave By Kelly Rivière — Les Échappés vifs Directed by: Philippe Baronnet, Pierre Bidart and Kelly Rivière Running time: 1 hour 10 minutes Kelly Rivière (An Irish Story) accepts her first writing commission and delivers a remarkably intelligent drama about the relationship between teachers and students. If You Leave is a powerful play, directed by Philippe Baronnet and performed by two sensationally authentic actors. A classroom, a weekday evening. Nathan announces to Ms. Ogier that he is leaving the school to dedicate himself to the business he is already successfully running: reselling sneakers online. Like Elon Musk, he wants to succeed quickly and dramatically. Through a tense but humorous dialogue, the teacher tries to convince her student to stay. Between provocations and confidences, the confrontation becomes intense, and ultimately intimate. A gripping drama that explores the notions of success and emancipation. A pure moment of theatre, sensitive and moving. Accessible seating reservations: 01 40 09 44 30
