LATEST UPDATE!

A  MATINEE PERFORMANCE ADDED ON SATURDAY 1ST APRIL , 5PM.

MR AND MRS SMITH request the pleasure of your company for an absurdist, immersive, bilingual (French/English) theatrical experience, based on the works and words of celebrated playwright EUGENE IONESCO. At this unusual dinner party, sat around a long table amongst the performers and a glass of French wine, you will be introduced to unexpected guests, have your senses played with and be made to eat your own words!

After sell-out performances in June 2016 as a commission from In TRANSIT Festival of Arts in association with the French Institute, the show is back by popular demand. This theatrical experience, frantic, unpredictable and liberating, will draw you into the absurdist world of Ionesco, from his reflection on the world to his most hilarious scenes (The Bald Soprano, The Lesson and others).

MARIANNE BADRICHANI AND THE COMPANY have been successfully creating site specific and installation performances in unconventional spaces for the last ten years, including Blue Beard (Old Brompton Cemetery), La Peau de Chagrin (Holland Park), The Show in A Shop Window (Kensington Church St) and Square Bubble ( Royal National Theatre Watch This Space in 2014).
