Paris-A poignant father-son dynamic unfoldsโข onstage at the Thรฉรขtre Montparnasse, as actor Pierreโข Arditi portrays a celebrated performer confronting mortality andโข seeking tooโข dictate his memoirs to a long-estranged, struggling writer son. Alexis Macquart’s play, “I will โremember almost everything,” directedโ by Julien โขBoisselier, offers โคa rawโ exploration of familial โresentment, regret, and the anxieties ofโ fading legacy, running through December 21st.
The production arrives as โa particularly resonant tribute to Arditi, 74,โ who faced health challenges last year that prompted him to cancel performances. The play’s central question โ- “Will I be remembered โขwhen I’m gone?” – echoes the actor’s own concerns, amplified by his recent vulnerability.”I will remember almost everything” delves โคinto the complex โrelationship between a successful but self-absorbed father andโ a son burdened by unfulfilled potential, usingโ the act โฃof memoir-writing as a โcatalyst to exhume decades of unspoken grievances and carefully constructed narratives. Alongside Miguel Vander Linden and Nicolas brianรงon, Arditi delivers a compelling performance, though critics note aโ somewhat protracted conclusion.
