The sociétaire Denis Podalydès likes to recall that it is a “troop play\, written not for the Court but for the people”. It was created in 1671 at the Palais-Royal during a period of work. Molière was then freed from the constraints of ballet comedies and machine comedies: it was “pure theater” that gave the director great freedom of action. \n\n\n\nIn a setting evoking the port of Naples\, the city where the play takes place\, Denis Poldalydès unfolds all the elements of this comedy where Molière takes the side of youth. During the absence of their fathers who went on a trip\, Léandre fell in love with Zerbinette while Octave married Hyacinte. But their elders are back\, with the idea of imposing an arranged marriage on their respective sons. \n\n\n\nMatinées certain days URL:https://mnanaheireann.com/event/les-fourberies-de-scapin-a-la-comedie-francaise/ LOCATION:La Comedie Française\, 1 Place Colette\, Paris\, 75001\, France CATEGORIES:Culture ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://mnanaheireann.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Les-Fourberies-de-Scapin.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20270117T203000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20270601T230000 DTSTAMP:20260717T210729Z CREATED:20260309T203910Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260717T210729Z UID:35219-1800217800-1811890800@mnanaheireann.com SUMMARY:Le CID à la Comedie Francaise DESCRIPTION:The emblematic piece of French classical theatre\, ‘Le Cid’! \n\n\n\nThe return of Denis Podalydès to the staging with this mythical play. When the father of Chimène slaps Rodrigue’s father out of jealousy\, a deadly duel ensues. Corneille locks the lovers in an absolute dilemma\, to be discovered. \n\n\n\nRecognised as a genius of litterature\, Corneille was nonetheless accused\, at the first represntation of his play in 1637\, of not respecting the three-unit rule of time\, place and action. \n\n\n\nBenjamin Laverrnhe who amazed us all with his multiple talents when presenting the Césars this year will undoubtedly thrill us playing Don Rodrigue. \n\n\n\nMatinées certain days URL:https://mnanaheireann.com/event/le-cid-a-la-comedie-francaise/ LOCATION:La Comedie Française\, 1 Place Colette\, Paris\, 75001\, France CATEGORIES:Culture ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://mnanaheireann.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/le-Cid.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
