Spectacle – Molière !

Molière evokes something for everyone, for having read him or come across him on the school benches. Representative, symbol of French culture, the 17th century and later the post-Revolution made him an authentic myth. A man of letters with a silhouette enhanced by a curly wig, he also appears as an aged figure from a theater from another era.

We know his legend, but what do we really know about his real life? An offbeat and passionate, but above all unpredictable, speaker invites us to learn more about the famous playwright. Let's sweep away a few clichés, dust off the statue and impertinently try to tell you his story and why he will remain an extraordinary artist throughout time.

Un spectacle programmé par Derrière Le Hublot, Scène conventionnée d'intérêt national – art en territoire, en partenariat avec la commune de Najac.

In case of rain, retreat to the village hall.
