Tiphaine Raffier | Philip Roth | La femme coupée en deux
nomad workshop
Bucky Cantor, main character in the last novel by master of American literature Philip Roth, could be a Greek tragedy hero destroyed by hubris. Tiphaine Raffier’s free adaptation reminds us about men’s vulnerability against the inevitable arbitrariness of fate.
How to adapt Phillip Roth’s tenderness, intelligence and joyful irony for the stage, the cinema, the musical ? Tiphaine Raffier rose to the challenge, moved by the intensity of Roth’s work. She was already famous for her masterful shows on human condition. Not allowed to serve his country during World War II because of shortsightedness, the protagonist pours his frustration and virtue in his duty as instructor in an activity centre for the Jew community. Unbearable coincidence or divine intervention, a poliomyelitis epidemic will put him in painful moral dilemmas specific to an antic tragedy.
