\"Baroque<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Oghma<\/a><\/strong>company, made up of professional actors from Paris and specialized in baroque theater, came to interpret The Farce of Master Pathelin, an anonymous author of the fifteenth century as well as four Tales of Perrault. The two shows were held in front of all the 6th graders on Monday 17 and Tuesday 18 May.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baroque theatre presents a particular diction since the words are accentuated, the final consonants made sonorous, this responds to the rhetoric then in progress at the time, it aims to reinforce the meaning of the speech and it is accompanied by a gesture that, too, accentuates its value. The actors braved the elements as they played outdoors, and, due to the rain, under the windswept courtyard. Thankless conditions sometimes since they did not facilitate the acoustics. Nevertheless, these artists, seasoned with rudimentary playing conditions (indeed, they play on principle without sound and without lighting) have made this young audience, surprised but conquered, discover a form of theatre ignored: that of direct frontality, of the verb that manifests its power by itself, without ever seeking to enter into the psychology dear to modern dramaturgy.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charles Di Meglio, director of the company and\nspecialist of the 17th in its different artistic currents, intervenes\nalso with the terminales of Saint-Paul in order to prepare them for the\nGrand Oral by making them enjoy the oratorical merits of this famous\nbaroque rhetoric.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
