L'Avare

L'Avare is a classical play presented at Théâtre Coluche, a concert and show venue in Plaisir, with a cast of John Arnold, Liora Jaccottet, Anthony Ruotte, Mathilde Auneveux and Pascal Cesari.

This classical play centres on a man obsessed with keeping hold of his money, whose marriage plans and family decisions set off a chain of misunderstandings and tensions within his household. The tone is that of character comedy: the laughter arises as much from the situations as from the characters' foibles.

The cast comprises John Arnold, Liora Jaccottet and Anthony Ruotte, along with Mathilde Auneveux and Pascal Cesari, who alternate in their roles. Liora Jaccottet is a performing artist. On stage, the actors' performances and the direction of the text give the audience a sense of the characters' temperaments and the power dynamics between them.

Théâtre Coluche, a concert and show venue in Plaisir, hosts this performance. The show is aimed at audiences curious about classical theatre, who want to rediscover a comedy of manners in a contemporary staging from the French stage.
