Une femme seule

A formidable portrait of a woman: Sensuality, humor and gnashing of teeth.An explosive domestic closed session

Italy... or anywhere... Through her window, Maria tells her new neighbor about her life. Her life as a housewife, a good family in all respects...
From revelations to twists and turns, however, with the recognizable burlesque humor of Dario Fo and
Franca Rame, this woman casually confesses to a completely absurd life: Sequestered by a jealous husband who “uses” her as an object, she is reduced to the role of maid of all trades.
She goes about her household chores in a stifling world of confinement, between a sleeping baby, a voyeuristic neighbor, an impotent and vicious brother-in-law, the anonymous and salacious phone calls of a sadist, her tyrannical and suspicious husband and the memories of aborted love affairs with a man too young, too vulnerable.
During a conversation with this imaginary neighbor, Maria gradually frees herself and recounts her life, her inexperience in love and the way in which she is exploited by others.
Driven to despair, this alone woman will find a radical solution to each of her problems...
Sometimes tender, sometimes critical, funny and acidic, this alone on stage is a journey to the heart of the intimacy of this alone woman, between laughter and emotion.
An explosive domestic closed session!
