FÊTES DE LA NUIT written by Charles Mee directed by Les Waters January 28–February 27, 2005 The Roda Theatre WORLD PREMIERE running time: 2 hours, including one 15 minute intermission Produced in association with AT&T:OnStage®, administered by Theatre Communications Group. Read the SF Chronicle review Read the Oakland Tribune review Fêtes de la Nuit means “parties of the night,” and as the name suggests, this is a story of love, passion and Paris. Fêtes is a racy collage that expresses the beauty and complexity of love. It mingles drama, dance and music—including Edith Piaf, great arias from opera, hip hop and French pop music—into a sensual and exuberant celebration of life. Fêtes reunites the OBIE Award-winning artistic team of playwright Charles Mee and Berkeley Rep Associate Artistic Director Les Waters. Each won the OBIE Award for their Off-Broadway production of Mee’s Big Love. Les most recently staged Eurydice earlier this season here at Berkeley Rep. Be forewarned: Fêtes de la Nuit is a naughty valentine. It contains strong language, adult themes and nudity. It’ll be irresistible to mature audiences! When would you like to come to the show?
