Theatre: The Truth and the Lie of 'The Extravagant Lover'

Jorge Cramez saw the play 'La Place Royale ou l’Amoureux Extravagant' in 1993 in Lisbon, performed by the Théâtre de la Commune and directed by Brigitte Jacques. The world of Corneille's play — its characters and their emotions — influenced his film 'Amor Amor'. He is now staging the play.
