The Invitation

About the event

The Invitation

On January 19, 2027, at 8:30 p.m., at the Calais Theater, two leading figures of French cinema will share the stage: Frédéric Chau and Guy Lecluyse. They star in a comedy written by Hadrien Raccah, in which Daniel—a husband feeling a bit stifled by his life—invents an imaginary friend as a way to escape.

But when his wife decides to meet this mysterious Charlie, everything goes haywire. Daniel hires a stranger to play the part, a decision that quickly spirals out of control and turns this little arrangement into utter chaos. Misunderstandings, absurd situations, and unexpected twists: *L’Invitation* is a jubilant, closed-door comedy where masks come off and pretences shatter.

The show is presented as part of the Culture category. Tickets are €34.
