Il ne faut jurer de rien

Written after his break-up with George Sand and performed by six young actors from the latest graduating class of the École du Théâtre National de Bretagne, Il ne faut jurer de rien is one of Alfred de Musset’s wildest plays. Valentin is 25, lives off his uncle’s fortune and refuses marriage for fear of being cheated. Between comical situations and lyrical flights of fancy, Il ne faut jurer de rien reminds us that “what we believe is not always what is”. In the midst of this game of fools, Musset shows the miracle of the amorous encounter, questions the balance of power between men and women and education, and promotes truth and love as values for the future!
