Presented by Les AMAZONES à la Julienne, this satirical comedy upends fairy-tale logic to expose social conventions. A distinguished lecturer’s attempt to rehabilitate classic tales unravels as a sarcastic Witch dismantles founding myths, and heroines from Cinderella to Snow White rebel, bore themselves or awaken sexually. Mixing social satire, dark comedy and biting poetry, the piece stages wild reversals where prey become predators, yielding a hilarious yet cruel portrait of a post–fairy‑tale world that unsettles as it amuses.

About the play
1942. France is under occupation. Seven friends gather to celebrate Sophie’s birthday—until two German officers are shot beneath their windows. Kaubach, a Nazi commander, forces the guests to make an unthinkable choice: to designate two hostages among themselves.
Thus begins a harrowing struggle for survival. By confronting the depths of human nature, the play invites us to question which side we would have chosen.
