What the press says:

RegArts – Bravo to Carine Montag who offers us a gem, Le Marchand de Venise, which has particularly inspired her, as her adaptation is sumptuous and her staging brilliant! (...) We feast on this performance, a happy blend of comedy, laughter, suspense, and drama, served by ten amazing actors who lead a fiery story with dense and flamboyant characters at a furious pace. Note the soft and subtle musical illustration by Paul Montag, which adds warmth or mystery depending on the atmosphere of the scenes.
