Sébastien Valignat has made the democratic question his obsession. After The art of always being right – a simple and infallible way to win an election, he returns with a creation fueled by political hot topics. Since 2010, the troupe has combined humanities and the work of political scientists and historians to compose a rigorous and lively theatre. In five chapters, the play goes back – always with humor – the thread of our democratic history, from the Revolution to today. Between historical references and concrete situations, it also raises a more intimate question: how can one get so angry when speaking about politics with someone who shares the same ideas? A documented and committed comedy, which encourages you to remain an alert citizen.
