Dorante arrives in Paris. Lover of adventure, he's really in search of his own image. Valiant by nature and a liar by custom, he imagines, dreams as he talks, and invents exploits and a life for himself to find his place in the trendy world of selfies and likes. He seduces Clarice, believing her name to be Lucretia. It starts well.
But when his father asks him to marry Clarice, whom he thinks he doesn't know, things take a turn for the worse. And when Clarice herself asks Lucretia to spy on...Dorante arrives in Paris.

Valiant by nature and a liar by custom, he imagines, dreams as he talks, and invents exploits and a life for himself to find his place in the trendy world of selfies and likes. He seduces Clarice, believing her name to be Lucretia. It starts well.
But when his father asks him to marry Clarice, whom he thinks he doesn't know, things take a turn for the worse. And when Clarice herself asks Lucretia to spy on Dorante, all hell breaks loose. In an attempt to exist, he bluffs. But by being the greatest of liars, isn't he the mirror of all those he's deceiving?
Fluorescent sneakers, strobes and a flash set: the room lights up
like a disco ball. The actors and actresses
electrify Corneille's baroque play, which questions our social
