A hatter, his wife, her daughter and their maid, love misunderstandings between a city-centre shop and a seaside villa: in Ô mon bel inconnu, Sacha Guitry's brilliant and acerbic pen wonderfully sketches the setbacks of a society that dreams of elsewhere, to the lively music of Reynaldo Hahn.
A bourgeois tragedy that becomes a comedy, that's how the witty Sacha Guitry liked to present Ô mon bel inconnu, a play with an evocative title: unavowable fantasies of a romantic encounter, mirages of a better everyday life... A situation that echoes our own unspoken aspirations. Composer Reynaldo Hahn's score is a cross between café-concert and the great romantic works, with saxophone and piano playing off the strings. On stage, Émeline Bayard brings the elegance of the 1930s to life in a lively production that reveals the misunderstandings, blunders and complex stratagems of the endearing protagonists. A lively, tangy musical with a touch of humour and poetry.
