Avignon Festival the language of Shakespeare in the spotlight

Honored by the Festival d’Avignon this year, English could not escape a staging by the most famous of its authors, William Shakespeare. In “Le Songe”, adaptation of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”, Gwenaël Morin offers a version that is both rapid and cruel of this baroque comedy retracing the spiral of desire of four Athenians.
