The appointments of the Molières ceremony took place this Thursday morning in one of the salons of the Hôtel de Ville in Paris.
To announce and comment on them, behind a long table on which stood the statuette of Poquelin: Jean-Marc Dumontet -show producer and owner of half a dozen theater halls-, Michel Field -director of culture and live show at France Télévision-, and Alexis Michalik, leading artist, who needs no introduction.
He is, this year, the president of the ceremony, in other words he will be able to waltz with his innate sense of rhythm the evening scheduled for the end of April.
When he took the floor, he held this very refreshing speech, he intends to break the monotony of this kind of interminable evening where congratulations flow like lukewarm water.
He says: "
I'm very happy to preside over this ceremony, but what can I promise you?
Well, I won't be alone, I'll be with my troupe this year who will be performing on stage, there will be music, etc.
You will see this troop in a trailer which will be broadcast in a few days on France TV.
I what I like is the rhythm and the troupe.
I will try to ensure that this ceremony is not too long.
Will it be funny?
We'll see (…).
We are lucky in France to have an extremely lively theater so for two hours we will try to have a good time, do some entertainment.
