« Sacha Guitry, ma Fille et Moi » adapted from Sacha Guitry’s works by Marianne Badrichani and Edith Vernes

Performed in French with English surtitles

Sacha Guitry used to say:
« Toutes les femmes sont comédiennes, à l’exception de quelques actrices »
« All women act a part except for a few actresses »

One evening in her dressing room, a distinguished actress talks her daughter through her memories and her tempestuous relationships with the playwright and partner in crime Sacha Guitry.

It is a swan song, a kaleidoscope of adventures and misadventures…or a lesson on how to make a permanent coup de theatre of your life.

This British Premiere, as a tribute to Sacha Guitry on the 60th anniversary of his death, celebrates his undying admiration for women and his particular talent for mixing reality and fiction.

Following two sell-out shows, « Trois Ruptures/Three Splits » by Rémi De Vos (London, Beijing) and "Ionesco/Dinner at the Smiths" (London, Paris), this new production is the third collaboration between actress Edith Vernes and director Marianne Badrichani.
