Last Saturday, the Gueules de bois troupe lit up the stage with their brand-new play, LES MAUX. A sequel to LA PRESCRIPTION, performed in April 2023, this original creation, written and directed by Candice Desmet, transported the audience into the unique world of Dr. Muller’s office. Seated in the waiting room, the many spectators were captivated as they discovered the struggles and ailments of the quirky inhabitants of this village.
A huge round of applause goes to the entire cast: Nicolas, Océane, Claire, Laurent, Lise, Cécile, and Charline, as well as to Candice for her outstanding direction. Through their talent and dedication, they brought to life characters that were both deep and compelling, immersing the audience in the heart of their emotions.
A big thank you also goes to the entire Chelsea Theatre team for their warm welcome, professionalism, and cheerful smiles. A special mention to Ikram and Will for their invaluable support.
We are also deeply grateful to the French Consulate in London and the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs for their support of this project.
And, of course, an enormous thank you to our audience, who came to cheer on and applaud the performers on stage. Your presence means the world to us, and we hope we lived up to your expectations.
Photos and videos of the play will be available soon—stay tuned!
