What if the fairy tales of our childhood became our worst nightmare? That’s the irresistible premise of this play by Vincent Varinier. William Perrault, the last heir of the famous author, has just taken possession of the family home. With his friend Albert—as endearing as he is simple-minded—he settles in for what promises to be a quiet night…

But after midnight, all hell breaks loose: the heroes and villains of the fairy tales escape from the pages to wreak monumental chaos! Between outlandish situations and the intervention of a policewoman who’s as suspicious as she is depressed, this comedy—which has been playing to sold-out crowds throughout France since 2019—is fueled by energy and humor. Led by a talented cast (Carla Girod, Corentin Calmé, Frédéric Valentin, and either Laure Trégouët or Cécilia Fornezzo), it’s the perfect way to treat yourself to a good dose of laughter.
