J’ai 8 ans et je m’appelle Jean Rochefort

Adapted from Adèle Fugère’s novel, this intimate theatrical piece follows eight-year-old Rosalie as she wakes one morning sporting Jean Rochefort’s moustache — a whimsical device that reveals childhood depression, fears and resilience. Thomas Drelon inhabits Rosalie with malice and virtuosity, shifting between child and imagined alter ego in a staging that balances tenderness and humour. Sparse yet inventive direction and expressive performance probe fragile inner lives with warmth and subtlety.
