New play in French
Play touring from Nov 2025 - July 2026
Newly graduated Léa & Théo have a spontaneous "let's-just-do-NOW" attitude and this applies to their engagement party which Léa wants to take place tomorrow! But they have no venue, no food, no outfits, no guests, and they still haven't even met each others parents yet.
​
With only 24 hours to pull off their dream party its a frantic, rush, with wildly different visions of the “perfect bash.”
​
Determined to make it happen, their friends, families, and a series of bizarre characters (played by students from the audience) make the impossible possible - but not without compromises.
​
As their stress levels rise and their party teeters on the edge of disaster, Léa & Théo start to question if getting engaged to each other is such good idea.
​
This party will be one to remember but for what reasons? Its a fast-paced adventure that blends comedy, French Language, culture, and emotions.
