En Attendant Bojangles - Théâtre de l'Œuvre, Paris

En Attendant Bojangles Under their son's gaze, a couple dance to Mr Bojangles by Nina Simone. Their love is magical, dizzying, a perpetual party. At home, there is room only for pleasure, fantasy and friends.

The one who sets the tone, who leads the dance, is the mother, an unpredictable and extravagant will-o'-the-wisp. One day, however, she goes too far. Father and son will do everything to avert the inevitable, so that the party goes on, come what may.

Mad love has never lived up to its name so well. Running time: 1h20. A play after the novel by Olivier BOURDEAUT, adapted by Victoire BERGER-PERRIN. With Charlie DUPONT, Tania GARBARSKI and, on alternate performances, Jérémie PETRUS and Victor BOULENGER.
