A necessary and poignant show in which journalism and theater merge in an attempt to resolve the thorny issue of the artist?s dissociation from his work, to be seen on Friday December 12 at 8pm at the Théâtre municipal Jérôme Savary in Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone.
Should man be separated from artist?
Giulia Foïs and Etienne Gaudillère

"You're an actor, you're dreaming of making it in the movies, you're struggling a bit, and then one day you get an offer for the role of your dreams. The director is Roman Polanski. What do you do?"
As #MeToo unleashes thousands of testimonials and artists fall under accusations of sexual assault, what to make of this question: Should we separate the man from the artist? What are we to make of Woody Allen?s films? The music of Michael Jackson or Bertrand Cantat? The writings of Céline?
Director Étienne Gaudillère and journalist Giulia Foïs pen the fifth episode of Grand ReporTERRE, a series initiated by the Théâtre du Point du Jour (Lyon) that puts current affairs at the heart of theater.
By touching on the intimate as well as the public sphere, this creation stands out as an artistic and media laboratory that redraws the contours of our art history by dislodging the "great men" from their pedestals.
