Théâtre Nout presents Jean Cocteau

In the frame of the 20th Cairo International Experimental Theatre Festival, the French company Théâtre Nout is presenting an adaptation of Jean Cocteau's L’école des veuves. This little known, rather funny text from Cocteau deals with the attachment to material things, love, and faithfulness, is played by only five actors and lasts around one hour. The company has been presenting this show in Paris for quite a while and has received good reviews.

The text is going to be in French and I personally do not think there will be an onsite translation available.
