 A cocktail of comedy, chaos and cruelty … served up in a lounge room near you!
Henri and Sonia are putting their son to bed when an unexpected knock
at the door throws them into chaos. Hubert and Inès have arrived for
dinner, a day earlier than expected.
As their non-dinner-party-from-hell degenerates, Yasmina Reza makes her
actors replay the same scene three times – each time blending cruel
observations and high comedy with increasingly hilarious and at times
unsettling results.
Well-loved Festival Director Lindy Hume returns to Perth to mix a
cocktail of comedy, chaos and cruelty, with Life x 3 marking her debut
as a director of straight drama.
“Don’t humiliate yourself by pretending I’m a drunk, Hubert, your usual snide remarks will be quite sufficient…” Inès
