A rich lawyer invites a businessman and his wife to meet him at his home, at a quarter to four the next day. The couple arrive on time but the lawyer is out. The husband becomes grouchy and impatient, and very clumsily hides from his wife the fact that he has an appointment with his mistress at that very moment. She lets him go for the evening, and he departs, leaving her alone. On Tuesday, February 6 at 20:00 at the Théâtre Princesse Grace in partnership with the Audiovisual Institute of Monaco.

Pier Paolo Calzolari – Casa ideale – Exhibition
Pier Paolo Calzolari is known for the formal originality of a multidisciplinary art (painting, sculpture, but also performances understood in the sense of “acts of passion”), often using organic materials such as tobacco leaves, fire, or frost to create “installation pieces” that push the boundaries of contemporary art. This retrospective exhibition, entitled “Casa ideale”, is a rare opportunity to discover the world of an artist who has left his mark on the history of art through a mostly unconventional approach to the various artistic forms. Until Sunday, April 7 at the Nouveau Musée National de Monaco – Villa Paloma. Discover more here.
