Jacques Gay and Raphaëlle Farman Return to Paris with Boulevard Comedy "Le dîner de cocus" at Théâtre des Deux Ânes
Jacques Gay and Raphaëlle Farman are staging a new boulevard comedy in Paris, "Le dîner de cocus," at the Théâtre des Deux Ânes. The production follows their previous collaborations, "La Diva et le Toréador" and "Attention Maîtres Chanteurs." Described as musical and hilarious, the play features a lively, offbeat troupe. The plot centers on Gilles, who is caught by his wife Hortense while declaring his love to his mistress on the phone. To cover his tracks, Gilles claims he was speaking with his closest collaborator, who supposedly needs affection during a difficult time. Hortense, not fooled, demands that Gilles invite the collaborator to dinner so she can get to know him. Convinced she can expose her husband and make him pay for his lies, she overlooks the possibility that her own secret life might unexpectedly surface. The production is presented as a partner event of the Club Artistik Rezo, with the source listed as a press release. A YouTube video is embedded in the original announcement.
