Borne along by Julie Depardieu and Edith Scob, this "Misanthrope" directed and played by Michel Fau reveals a baroque Alceste, a raging madman in all his original trappings. This brilliant performance of one of Molière's most classic comedies whisks the audience to the heart of an exuberant 17th century, when high society devoted itself to the most trivial and futile pastimes. January 3rd. Théâtre Princesse Grâce, 12 avenue d’Ostende, Monaco (00 377 93 25 32 27).
