“Marion du Faouët, La Catin aux cheveux rouges” performed by Les Escogriffes
12 to 14 MarchThe Edinburgh University’s French Theatre Society, Les Escogriffes, return to the Institut français d’Ecosse to perform Colette Cosnier’s Marion du Faouët: La catin aux cheveux rouges, a feminist piece you won’t want to miss!
Their play will cast you back to eighteenth-century Brittany, where a determined outcast becomes a feminist Robin Hood. Written in France in 1975, the year of the Veil Law, Cosnier’s play questions social norms, institutions, bodily autonomy, and justice.
Join Marion and her gang for a night of comedy, tears, and an unforgettable plot, as we retell the rise and demise of Marion Tromel…
‘N’oubliez jamais l’histoire
De Marion la Catin.
Gardez-la dans vos mémoires
Pour éviter son destin.’
