The engagement will be presented in the Roda Theatre, December 4-January 24, with an opening on December 9.

The creative team includes Victoria Thierrée Chaplin (sound and stage design), Laura de Bernadis and Philippe Lacombe (lighting design), and Victoria Thierrée Chaplin, Jacques Perdiguez, Veronique Grand, and Monika Schwarzl (costume design).
