Monsieur Malaussène

Benjamin is about to become a father. He is plagued by numerous questions that he decides to share with his unborn baby. He tries to warn the baby about what awaits him, and who awaits him. Benjamin plays all the roles, without really knowing, as usual, which one is his own. A one-on-one between a father and his son. A fable about life. Through the Malaussène family, Pennac tells us about a humanity that stumbles, falls, gets back up, and is enthusiastic about the future. A production by the Théâtre Populaire Nantais

Directed and performed by Régis Flores

« Régis Flores doesn't embody Monsieur Malaussène, he is Monsieur Malaussène. Two chairs and a balloon for the only set, everything is perfect, it's a show not to be missed  » – City local news

« The entire universe of the Malaussène saga served here by a brilliant actor, who powerfully, accurately, and passionately draws the audience into his adventures as well as his questions, worries, calms down, gets anxious, caricatures, imitates, puts himself in danger, in short reassures us: the off festival always holds rare gems.  » – La Provence
