WE, THE THE FALSE HERO
Jean-Luc Lagarce, Creation Theatre National de Strasbourg in November 2006.
We, the comic hero and Illusions, two shows that are so troubling answer (besides, Olivier Py, who had created the piece Lagarce, 1997) and put the theater in the heart of their connection, through a group of comedians. Without ever being narcissistic - it is thinner than cela.D first because since Molière and to the beautiful film directed by Louis Malle from Uncle Vanya by Chekhov, we know that is no better than a group of actors as human sample taken in a tangled web of relationships. But mainly because it draws a selection query in depth about what it means to be an actor, the full meaning of the term - an actor of his own life and his time - in a world which, perhaps, leaves little room for that possibility. And We, the hero is exactly like a stirring sight of Chekhov, carried by a formidable group of actors, John Arnold and Annie Mercier head. Declining from all sides around a long table and a sad festival, which takes place between theater and life, so much so that we do not know at the end, if the players, " attire, "as they say, speak for themselves or their characters.

Declaration of Love in the theater, we, the hero is not a tender piece. The pettiness and mediocrity are better than large shared feelings (...). Recently left school NER, the director William Vincent wished to gather for the show "a distribution as diverse as possible." The huge group photo in the background, gives color: not a troupe of young actors, but a family disparate individuals with strong presence (...) Strange and familiar, they are worthy first "hero" a "Year Lagarce" that will provide dozens of events in tribute to the man who should have had 50 years in 2007.
