French Toast
?By all means die if you want to, just not in my show!?
This uproarious comedy by France?s acclaimed playwright Jean Poiret (La Cage aux Folles) lands on the English stage for the first time in a glittering new adaptation.
A little bit rude, a little bit sexy - with a few songs?.
Basingstoke, 1977. Director Simon Monk thinks his musical adaptation of the classic French play Phedre will be his come-back ticket to England.
Jacqueline Bremont, a French theatre diva, has decided that it will be the role of her life.
But there are just a few minor details to iron out: she can?t sing, she can?t dance, and Simon has no intention of casting her.
Can the show survive a cavalcade of rampaging egos, romantic entanglements and linguistic lapses? Bonne chance!
Director Marianne Badrichani returns to the Riverside Studios for the third time (The Little Book, Three Women) with her two accomplices, actress Edith Vernes and producer Nathalie Berrebi. Their latest productions were the sell-outs Moliere/Je t?aime moi non plus, Sacha Guitry, ma fille et moi, Ionesco/Dinner at the Smiths and Three Splits.
