After the immense success of their first collaboration, the author Remi De Vos and the director Eric Vigner present Sextett, sequel of Until death parts us. We meet again Simon who, in the first part of his adventures, wanted to get married to his first girlfriend when he brought to his mother’s home the funeral urn containing his grand-mother ashes. In Sextett, our lanky hero, still remarkably played by Micha Lescot, hasn’t got married. When the play begins, Simon has had to refuse an important professional contract to go to his mother’s funerals. Exhausted, he gets back to his mother’s house with Claire, a colleague who insists for her staying a few days to help him. His conception of life having just been turned upside down by this fatal death, Simon allows himself, getting rid of all constraints, to enter the kingdom of women, where desire and fantasy, dream and reality merge. In this crazy erotic comedy where Eros is dancing with Thanatos, five modern Erinyes will make Simon learn about himself and his story, in words and music. For our greatest pleasure, the living and the dead cohabit in this thriller of the familial unconscious in order to create an introspective comedy of intimacy.
“Playwright of the paradox and derision, of the comical blackness, of the tragi-comic daily life, Remi De Vos is one of the rising personalities of French contemporary theatrical writing.” La Terrasse
