Description
Saint-Exupéry
The Commander of the Birds
Discover the life of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, the world's most famous French writer and aviator.
His entire life was marked by oxymorons. He was a freedom-loving adventurer, a dreamer who found fulfillment in action, an impulsive thinker, a sensitive loner, never happier than in the company of his friends. He sublimated his torments, first by flying, then by writing masterpieces blending poignant narratives and incisive reflections. For him, others do not harm us, they enrich us.
This play celebrates friendship, a sense of duty, and the unspeakable; for while the essential remains invisible to the eye, it burns in our hearts. In a moving performance, Franck Desmedt embodies Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in a human odyssey that, scene by scene, illuminates the destiny of a man in search of the absolute. A vibrant spectacle, poised between sky and sand, that retraces the life of Saint-Exupéry: visionary aviator, passionate writer, tormented lover, philosopher of action.
