La Presse talks about it…
- Le Figaro : “Rare. Jubilant. All generations are there to applaud Mr. Keating. Stéphane Freiss seduces with his casualness. He played wonderfully this non-conformism to which his flock would later pay tribute. He doesn’t just bewitch his class, he also embraces the audience. The gamble paid off. “
- Le Parisien : “Sublime. Magic. Wonderful. A high-flying theatrical whirlwind. The actors are breathtaking in their energy and talent. At the end of the first performances, the audience jumps to its feet to applaud this jewel at the top of its lungs .”
- Le Monde : “Faithful adaptation by Gérald Sibleyras, and direction both fluid and spirited by Olivier Solivérès. Emotion catches us. The cult scenes of the film brilliantly pass the ramp of the theatrical adaptation. Both excited and overwhelmed, the audience applauded wildly and gave a standing ovation to this exhilarating ode to the urgency of living .”
- Télérama : “Lively, seductive, brilliant, Stéphane Freiss exudes his charisma on stage. His students also have a sense of humour and talent. Triumph in the room for this magical, funny and sad story “
