Villes en scène > Le Mystère du Gant, vaudeville à table ou presque – Théâtre National Wallonie-Bruxelles

A table vaudeville, four acts, thirteen characters, one actor and one actress.

A convoluted plot, countless characters and improbable twists: none of the ingredients of vaudeville are missing. Except perhaps the slamming doors… because there are no doors, no sets or costumes either, just two actors sitting at a table to read the play by Roger Dupré, a (for the time being) unknown author.
They quickly get caught up in this incredible and absurd plot with lovers, deception, amnesia and serial murders. Between a wild pastiche and a tribute to a genre considered outdated, The Mystery of the Glove relies on two great actors and the imagination of the audience, which is heavily used.
It's hilarious, cheeky and delicious.
