Although the play remains immoral because evil triumphs, it primarily conveys that everything can be bought except love… and this is where it remains timeless. To amplify this story, which is both painful, burlesque, and obsessive, Michel Fau has chosen to embrace a baroque and nightmarish aesthetic… with the collaboration of Gaétan Jarry and the musicians of his Ensemble Marguerite Louise.
