LE MARIAGE DE FIGARO DE BEAUMARCHAIS

Une adaptation de Guillaume Roper-Sirvent
Mise en scène par GUILLAUME ROPER-SIRVENT
3 dates: Les 15 mai, 20 h, le 16 mai 20 h, le 17 mai 20h au Chain Theater, NY

In French with English Subtitles

🇫🇷 Figaro est concierge au château du comte Almaviva. Il est très amoureux de Suzanne, jeune femme de chambre de la Comtesse Almaviva. Il est sur le point de se marier avec elle, mais le Comte Almaviva est lui-même épris de Suzanne. La jeune Suzanne croit devoir avertir sa maîtresse et son fiancé des intentions du Comte … Naît alors une union entre Suzanne, la Comtesse et Figaro, pour faire avorter les plans du Comte, qui donne naissance à une pièce riche en révélations, en surprises et en travestissements.
Comédie en 5 actes, écrite par Beaumarchais en 1778, cette pièce ne sera représentée pour la première fois qu’en 1784, après avoir été censurée plusieurs fois par Louis XVI, qui l’aurait qualifiée, selon certaines sources … d’ ''exécrable”.


L’adaptation que nous proposerons en mai sera recentrée sur 9 personnages principaux, mais respectera la langue de Beaumarchais et conservera son aspect de comédie d’intrigues, riche en quiproquos. A l’heure où les inégalités économiques explosent et où l’ascenseur social semble bloqué, nous nous amuserons à démontrer que le propos de cette pièce, écrite au Siècle des Lumières, garde toujours aujourd’hui sa force et sa vigueur

Car derrière chaque rebondissement de cette “folle journée” se joue en effet un véritable conflit social entre ces “puissants”, qui “se sont donnés la peine de naître, et rien de plus” et ces hommes “assez ordinaires”, qui aspirent simplement à courir “une carrière honnête,” gagnée à la force du mérite.


🇺🇸 Figaro is a concierge at Count Almaviva's castle. He is deeply in love with Suzan, Countess Almaviva's young chambermaid. He is about to marry her, but Count Almaviva is himself in love with Suzan. The young Suzan believes she must warn her mistress and her fiancé of the Count's intentions... A union is born between Suzan, Countess, and Figaro, to thwart Count's plans, which turns this play into a rich adventure, full of revelations, surprises, and disguises.This five-act comedy written by Beaumarchais in 1778, was not performed for the first time until 1784, after being censored several times by King Louis XVI, who, according to some sources, described it as "execrable."


The adaptation we will be showcasing in May will focus on nine main characters, but it will respect Beaumarchais's language and will still be a fun and complex comedy, rich in misunderstandings. Nowadays, as economic inequalities are still part of our modern societies and as it is still such a struggle to break some glass ceilings, our production intends to demonstrate that Beaumarchais masterpiece, written during the Age of Enlightenment, still retains its original power and vigor.


Indeed, behind each twist of this "crazy day" lies a real social conflict between these "powerful" people, who "gave themselves the Trouble to be born and nothing more," and these "ordinary" men, who simply have the audacity to pursue happiness, with the only help of their books, their studies and their merit.
