La France, empire

Documentary theatre presented by Nicolas Lambert. Suitable for all audiences aged 16 and over.

Nicolas Lambert debunks preconceptions about our colonial past and present. Personal memories and the national story collide. A facetious storyteller, he throws oil on the fire with a concern for the complexity of history, tracking down the unsaid things that we carry around with us like cumbersome family secrets.

And while laughter is never far away, the question remains: can we write a future on the rubble of a distorted past?
