Le Père Returns to Paris Stage with Pierre Arditi and Irène Jacob

Florian Zeller's acclaimed play 'Le Père' returns to the Théâtre Édouard VII in Paris, starring Pierre Arditi and Irène Jacob. The production runs from September 24 to December 30, 2026, with ticket prices ranging from €10 to €85. This is the third installment in Zeller's trilogy, following 'Le Fils' and 'La Mère'. The play explores the devastating effects of memory loss through the story of André, an aging and increasingly disoriented man who moves in with his daughter Anne. Despite his condition, André fiercely clings to his independence, leading to a poignant blend of humor, confusion, and tenderness. The play challenges perceptions of reality and questions the bonds of family and the relentless passage of time. The production has gained international recognition, particularly after its film adaptation won an Oscar. The Théâtre Édouard VII is located in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, and performance times are available on the venue's website.
