A new theatrical production at the Théâtre Lepic explores the complex relationship between personal ethics and political responsibility through the story of Chloé, a young woman deeply involved in an environmental group opposing the construction of large reservoirs and the overuse of water resources. Chloé is in love with Antoine, a prefect tasked with maintaining public order. Their relationship began in a theater class where they performed Bérénice and Titus, two classic plays that deal with themes of love and the principles of the state. Antoine is attracted to Chloé’s commitment to nature and justice, but their differing beliefs create tension, especially after the Minister of the Interior becomes involved, viewing Chloé’s strong political views as a threat to Antoine’s role as a government official. Directed by Sébastien Biseau, the play uses hyper-realistic and often humorous scenarios to blend the lives of young activists, government ministers, and hosts of popular television programs into fast-paced and energetic scenes. The production features four actors who move seamlessly between different settings, such as a radio studio, a cinema room, and a demonstration by activists against mega-basins. The actors use real videos and a dynamic performance style to involve the audience in intense political debates, rivalries, and impassioned speeches, as well as moments of emotional struggle and uncertainty. The cast includes Nastassia Silve, known for her versatility and charisma, Matthieu le Goaster, who excels in portraying a wide range of characters, Sana Puis, who brings a modern interpretation to the ancient Greek tragedy Antigone, and either Paul Martin or Gaspard Cuillé, who plays a young prefect caught between his feelings and his responsibilities. The production skillfully merges theater with everyday life, offering a thought-provoking experience that challenges the audience to consider the balance between personal morality and political obligation. By using realistic scenarios and engaging performances, the play highlights the conflicts that arise when personal beliefs clash with public duty. It invites the audience to reflect on the choices individuals face when their values are at odds with the demands of society and the state.
