A musical comedy
On 19 December, 1978, crowds flock to the film club and usherettes Marie-Jo and Anita scramble to seat the audience. As the screening begins, an unexpected incident disrupts the evening, and the usherettes have to improvise to keep the audience entertained while they wait. Backstage, Amédée the projectionist and Barnabé, the young novice usher, try to save the evening.
Accidents and adventures follow one another through this unprecedented night, inviting confidences, little songs and the kind of madness only a sleepless night can bring. What if this extraordinary evening gave the usherettes a chance to step out of the shadows and into the spotlight?
Performers: Patricia Samuel, Guillaume Destrem, Eléonore Duizabo, Simon Parmentier Writer/director: Fred Radix

“A feeling of fellowship, joy and melancholy gradually fills the theatre. We leave with light hearts. Fred Radix has once again managed to surprise us.” Théâtral Magazine
