A fantasy dialogue written by Anca Visdei based on the life of Sarah Bernhardt: With Sarah Bernhardt herself, Victor Hugo, Alexandre Dumas (father & son), the Duke of Morny, Madame Guérard (otherwise known as ‘the little lady’) Maurice, Jeanne, Rosine and Judith Bernhardt, Madame X, a notary from Le Havre, Thomas Alva Edisson, several cowboys, children, Chinese, toy animals, actors & co..
Is Sarah Bernhardt a 19th century subject? I don’t think so. It’s true that I’m a bit short-sighted but even so! Different topics are treated paedophilia, incurable sex diseases, revenge, the choice of partners, marketing, to go to bed or not if you want to succeed, contracts with the Anglo-Saxons, drugs, private enterprise, single parents…
19th? 21st? Humanity develops very slowly you know…rum
