The Libertine

A play by Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt ​

---

Created by Et Voilà Théâtre in 2007

A wild day in the life of the famous French philosopher Denis Diderot brings passion, seduction and also some trouble.
A clever, brilliant, and irresistibly funny comedy in two acts: there will be one 20 minute intermission.
 
Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt, is one of the most widely read and most played authors writing in French. His plays have quite often been produced in the USA.
