A singular project in the landscape of French theatre,Partage de midi is performed and directed by four great actors. This unusual piece, being autobiographical, is wreathed in the very flesh of the intimate tragedies of the author. In order to express the conflict of contradictory desires, Claudel invents a unique language, far from the academic, which utilizes a veritable physical theatricality.
