In conjunction with the “Amies de cour, Amies de cœur” exhibition, and on the occasion of the Journées de la Francophonie, this play aims to bring to life a woman “forgotten by history”, Claire Joseph Leris, known as Clairon.
Mademoiselle Clairon (one of the greatest comediennes of the 18th century, and Voltaire's favorite) is delighted to welcome her audience on the occasion of her birthday. For her guests, she declaims a scene from Phèdre, then begins to recount the birth of her vocation. She intersperses her story with extracts from plays she has performed: Molière, Racine... She shares her love of theater, her determination to become an actress, her efforts to perfect her art, defend her rights and honor. An astonishing testimony that resonates with our times.
