Calling all literature fans! At the Théâtre du Petit Saint Martin, Fabrice Luchini will present a reading of texts and poems by the emblematic figure of French Romanticism: Victor Hugo. From October 11 to November 2, 2023, plunge into the heart of his literary works .
Fabrice Luchini, the French actor who won the César for Best Supporting Actor in 1994 under the direction of Claude Lelouch, will be on stage to read and perform some of Victor Hugo's most famous works. Although the actor first read the texts in June 2021, in the gardens of the Maison de Chateaubriand, he is delighted to return to the Petit Saint-Martin for a second public reading. He will perform a pure reading of the texts, as well as poems and commentaries by writers such as Charles Baudelaire and Charles Péguy.
Victor Hugo, whose Maison des Vosges can be visited on the Place des Vosges, was an emblem of19th-century French Romanticism. Today, he is counted among the greatest authors of French literature. His plays include Hernani, Cromwell, Ruy Blas, the novels Les Misérables and Notre-Dame de Paris, as well as collections of poems including Les Contemplations.
His legacy, as vast as it is inescapable, deserves to be rediscovered at these readings at the Théâtre du Petit Saint Martin.
