George Courteline’s comedy “La Peur Des Coups” (Afraid to Fight) is a long domestic fight between a husband and his wife, returning home after an evening out. According to the violent, stingy and overzealous husband, she had been courted all night by a young and handsome army officer – and she loved it.

In Jean Cocteau's play "La Voix Humaine" (The Human Voice), a lone woman keeps getting interrupted by a bad connection as she talks on the phone to a lover with whom she's just broken up. The piece was written in 1930, but anybody who has ever experienced a lost signal will empathize.


Presented By

L’Alliance Française de Buffalo, the Department of Modern and Classical Languages and the Burchfield Penney Art Center, as part of the programming of “Year of the Arts” at Buffalo State College.
