Spectacle surtitré en anglais / english subtitles
In the twilight of his life, Valjean reveals his terrible secrets. This is the brand new version of a show that has been acclaimed in Paris and Avignon for ten years.
Victor Hugo's Les Misérables through the prism of Jean Valjean. Strength and humility.
This show, acclaimed for ten years, has been recreated to offer an even more intimate vision of the work.
Everything is new: staging, soundtrack, lighting, with a few nods for fans of the old version.
"A flawless performance from this actor who doesn't play Jean Valjean, he is Jean Valjean. The actor is a born storyteller. He is the perfect embodiment of Victor Hugo's hero, at once majestic and humble, grandiloquent and discreet, serving the author's novel." Culture Tops
"Christophe Delessart at his best. He knows how to move and surprise us. This actor is no stranger to the Théâtre de l'Essaïon, having magnificently played Rembrandt in Rembrandt sous l'escalier." Critiques theatres Paris
"Christophe Delessart has the stature for it, and if he deliberately chose a one-man show, he also plays all the roles." A bride abattue
"A surprising... and well-acted interpretation of Jean Valjean, in a sober staging by Elsa Saladin, where everything is effective." Clic info spectacles
