Théâtre Vie Val d'Is
After a great success last night, the Vie Val d'Is theater workshop is performing its play "We Almost Played Shakespeare" again tonight. As a reminder, this play features a small Parisian theater company that travels to the provinces to perform William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet." Just as the audience is seated and the show is about to begin, the curtain gets stuck. This is only the beginning of the troupe's troubles. The audience will be left wondering if the actors will manage to complete the play. Doors open at 7:30 p.m., with the show starting at 8:30 p.m. Refreshments will be available. The event will be held at the Henri Oreiller Congress Center. A minimum donation of two euros is requested.
