The Institut Français d’Écosse will host a theatrical journey through its premises on November 7, 2026. The venue, which is a centre for French language and culture, features rooms named after notable figures.
The Institut français d’Écosse is a home for French language and culture, where every room bears the name of a remarkable figure. Who were they, and what links them to both France and Scotland? These names are not there by chance: they tell the stories of lives, choices, and commitments, and sometimes of extraordinary destinies. What if these characters could speak to us? What if they still had something to tell us today? Let’s step through the doors… let’s meet them. Perhaps they will agree to reveal a fragment of their history. Credits: A site-specific play created and imagined by Elsa Booij and David Brunier Script: David Brunier Translation: Elsa Booij Directors: Elsa Booij and David Brunier Performers: Marion Geoffray, Elsa Booij, and Gabriel Bird
