The director Julie Berès, who has enjoyed a string of successes over the last few years with her works on youth, is occupying a gym at the Lycée Jacques Decour for Paris l'été.
Here, she presents a small-format variation of her latest show, La Tendresse, which probed with force and humor the construction of eight young men from the post #metoo generation. In the company of playwright Kevin Keiss, she invents Éducations sentimentales in an attempt to answer the dizzying question of "how to be a good guy today".
Performed by two young actors, this intimate dive, like a confidence between friends, questions the assignments of a masculine identity based on performance and domination. What if the acceptance of feelings and the demand for real equality between men and women were one of the keys to reinventing oneself?
These emotional Éducations sentimentales (Sentimental educations) are sure to convince us...
