They make up a social microcosm that takes place not in the cozy atmosphere of a living room but in an open space\, the landing of a mansion being moved into. The setting is a place in movement\, the metaphor of what must be\, according to the director\, the repertoire “which evolves\, completely in its century\, but nourished by previous centuries and already turned towards the century to come”.“I belong to a repertory theatre and I tell myself that if we don’t take a fresh look at the works\, then this repertory theatre has no place\,” says Clément Hervieu-Léger\, the new general administrator of the Comédie-Française. Created in 2014\, with 197 performances as of the date of this revival\, the show is one of those\, timeless\, which crosses the years with an acuity that age could not alter. \n\n\n\n1665 – the year of writing the “Misanthrope” – was a year of betrayal for Molière: that of Racine\, who gave his tragedy “Alexander the Great” to the troupe of the Hôtel de Bourgogne\, after the failure of its creation by that of Molière at the Théâtre du Palais-Royal. Do autobiographical resonances feed the dark mood of the main character\, Alceste\, who\, to hate one person\, decides to hate the whole world? \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMatinées certain days URL:https://mnanaheireann.com/event/la-misantrope-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/2026/05/LA-MISANTHROPE-2026.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20261015T120000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20261031T230000 DTSTAMP:20260717T210259Z CREATED:20260717T210256Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260717T210259Z UID:36267-1792065600-1793487600@mnanaheireann.com SUMMARY:WEXFORD OPERA FESTIVAL DESCRIPTION:Wexford Festival Opera will celebrate its 75th anniversary at the National Opera House\, Wexford\, featuring operas by Mascagni\, Rossini\, and Prokofiev\, as well as new works by Irish composers and a full programme of concerts and events \n\n\n\nEvery Wexford Festival Opera visitor is caught in the town’s warm embrace.

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:20261031T190000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20261031T233000 DTSTAMP:20260911T003444Z CREATED:20260911T003440Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260911T003444Z UID:36690-1793473200-1793489400@mnanaheireann.com SUMMARY:PAUL BRADY in concert\, Wexford.

La Périchole is one of Maître Jacques’s grands crus. Fresh\, sparkling and drinkable at will. The opéra bouffe is inspired by a comedy by Mérimée that Jean Renoir brought to the screen with Anna Magnani (Le Carrosse d’or). \n\n\n\nLa Périchole really existed\, she was a famous actress and singer in Lima who was the mistress of the viceroy of Peru. We don’t know if her nickname meant “little wonder” or “native she dog.” It depended on the tone. Hortense Schneider\, known as “Le Passage des princes”\, ensured the success of the work. Then Berganza and Crespin sang in turn “O my dear lover”\, “Ah what a dinner” or “I adore you brigand”. \n\n\n\nYou can be sure that the slaughter of Éléonore Pancrazi\, Marc Barrard and young Kaëlig Boché should make us forget all our worries.

Julie Deliquet\, the new director of the Théâtre National de La Colline\, makes their voices heard in a vibrant chorus that resonates with those of all women from all wars. \n\n\n\nIn the spring of 1975\, in a Soviet communal apartment\, a young journalist collected stories from women throughout the Soviet Union who\, as teenagers\, had taken up arms against Hitler’s army. These words of incredibly powerful women question the condition of those who\, even today\, decide to fight on the front line in armed conflicts. Julie Deliquet composes a theatre of listening where history moves from myth to intimacy through sometimes terrible\, sometimes comical details. In this living memory emerges\, beyond the tragic\, an irreducible joy: that of standing up for freedom.
