Paris, 1840. Two office workers become friends. Thanks to an inheritance, they leave their cramped lives to settle in the countryside. Seized by a frenzy to learn, they devour encyclopaedias and manuals and put their new knowledge into practice with naive enthusiasm. Agriculture, science, arts, politics, religion, all fields are explored, leading to hilarious fiascos. Marc Chouppart and Jean-Paul Farré combine their talents as a duo to deliver a version of Flaubert's last work that is as faithful as it is clownish. Here is a pleasant manual of absurd sciences that offers a welcome alternative to artificial intelligence! Genre: Theatre, comedy, classic author
