The 2nd Theater Festival “au fil de l’eau” features two remarkable performances aboard a gabare, a traditional wooden boat transformed into a floating stage on the banks of the Allier River. On Thursday, August 27, William Mesguish will present “Dans les forêts de Sibérie,” drawing inspiration from Sylvain Tesson’s experiences by Lake Baikal. This performance promises to transport the audience into enchanting stories. The next evening, Friday, August 28, two-time Molière Award winner Maxime d’Aboville will embody Napoleon, showcasing excerpts from significant French literary works by authors like Victor Hugo and Leo Tolstoy. Attendees can enjoy refreshments and food before and after each show, making it a delightful experience for both the mind and palate. Arrive early to take in the beautiful setting of this unique outdoor venue!
