At the Theater: "La Misérable"

Théâtre Municipal de Tarascon, Rue Eugène Pelletan

Juliette Drouet and Victor Hugo lived fifty years of a passion as intense as it was destructive. In La Misérable, Juliette finally steps out of the shadows to tell this extraordinary relationship: a devoted lover, a muse, a copyist and confidante of the poet, she also becomes the prisoner of an exclusive and obsessive love. Fueled by their letters and secrets, the show reveals the little-known story of a woman essential to Hugo’s work. Julie Depardieu lends her voice and sensitivity to this long-forgotten figure! “Julie Depardieu portrays Juliette Drouet with finesse and fragility.”
