Les Règles du savoir-vivre dans la société moderne
When humanity itself becomes ambiguous, there's only one solution: cling to the rules and thus live in a normal way. Sing carols at Christmas, eat lamb at Easter, go skinny on Fridays, give dolls to the girls and trucks to the boys. Let's listen to Jean-Luc Lagarce's emissary teach us Les règles du savoir-vivre dans la société moderne.
In this era of the new millennium, when borders are opening up, landmarks are changing, and restless society is looking for a framework, let's learn once and for all how we should behave in all circumstances.
Jean-Luc Lagarce questions the role of all these rules: a facade built day after day around the individual to protect him? to bind him to society? or to hide his cracks?
"We settle all these things because an engagement, a marriage, life in general, are a long series of things to settle, we can't forget that, and it would be foolish to let ourselves be overwhelmed by the incidental trivialities that are feelings". But the interpretation upsets these Rules: in that impeccable suit and under that ceremonial hat, who is speaking to us? Is it a feminine man or a masculine woman?
