I am performing the piece in Avignon to inaugurate a new venue, La Scala Provence.
Then I will present the film adaptation of the play at the Angoulême Francophone Film Festival.
Between two, I will travel a little and I will land in my house on the Blue Coast, near Marseille.

Craziest summer ever?
2005: my first Avignon Festival, where I discovered this jungle of shows and encounters.
Frantic.
And the worst summer?
The last: a road trip with three friends in the Baltic countries.
It rained non-stop for eight days.
Depressing, especially since everyone already had worries.
But it's memories like this that bond friendships.
Sea bathing or lengths in the pool?
Sea bathing in the Mediterranean, but I recently joined the brotherhood of swimming pool designers with my house in the South.
You need bac + 10 to keep its water turquoise!
Fresh rosé or refreshing cocktail?
I do not consume alcohol or sugar, so I prefer iced tea or homemade infusion.
A signature dish?
Stuffed zucchini.
Lounge chair or fouta?
Fouta on deck chair.
Sandals or flip flops?
Team sneakers!
They were beneficial to me during my summers in Avignon.
I passed the age for TikTok

Sand castle or abs-glutes?
I prefer windsurfing.
A reading break assumed?
At any time, on the beach: I catch up on what I missed during the year.
The most beautiful holiday love story?
I hope she hasn't arrived yet.
Maybe this year?
Otherwise,
The Count of Monte-Cristo,
by Alexandre Dumas, discovered as a teenager: a decisive encounter in my life since it largely inspired my play
Le Porteur d'histoire
.
Your favorite beach conversation?
We have a tradition of psycho-paddle with my friends.
We go in pairs, we hang on to a buoy and we take stock.
Instagram or TikTok?
I have passed the age for TikTok.
Fruit sorbet or Nutella-chantilly waffle?
If I ate sugar: vanilla-chocolate ice cream.
The sorbet is the ersatz.
No interest, like the meatless burger.
The perfect aperitif playlist?
Jam Radio.
A dinner under the stars with…?
A large table of friends, William Shakespeare, if I can raise the dead, and Mel Brooks, with whom I would like to talk about his incredible career.
