Presentation

Come and see a performance of * J’ai besoin d’air, c’est pour ça que je fume* at the Théâtre Montansier.
Within a Catholic aristocracy where the appearance of perfection takes precedence, certain taboos demand absolute silence. In this rigid world where breaking a secret is seen as an act of betrayal, speech is stifled.

Elizabeth thought she was growing up in a fairy tale: life in a castle, her head full of dreams and a bright future ahead. Yet her life is suddenly turned upside down. Refusing to let herself be broken, she finds the strength to break the code of silence and turn to the law to set herself free. This journey of healing and truth enables her to overcome her trauma and reinvent herself.
