Through backstage rites, superstitions, rivalries and intimate anecdotes, the piece blurs the lines between onstage action and private life, inviting reflection as much as laughter.

La Demande en mariage et l’ours

Performances

Théâtre de Carouge

Two short plays by Anton Chekhov staged by Tibor Ockenfels and Flavie Tapparel, presented as compact dramatic machines where romantic comedy masks escalating confrontations between desire, affection and material interest.

The three actors — Estelle Bridet, Matteo Prandi and Raphaël Vachoux — inhabit heightened character types that shift between farce and darker comic truth, creating a sharply observed, kinetic evening.
