Oh Captain, my Captain… This line from The Dead Poets Society still rings true.
For the first time in France, the film has been adapted for the stage, with actor Stéphane Freiss in the role of the magnetic John Keating.
This charismatic, iconoclastic teacher inspires his young students to open up to life, far from the straitjacket of convention embodied by their school.
A moving, contemporary story, the play celebrates friendship, emancipation and transmission as personalities and destinies take shape.
A cry for life! A cry for life! A cry for freedom! Carpe Diem! Carpe Diem!
