Martin EDEN, the pitfall of a dream

A one-man show based on the novel by Jack LONDON

About

Clumsy, a little naive, very determined and madly in love with Jane Morse, sailor Martin EDEN grows up in the slums of Oakland. He announces his intention to become a writer in order to take his revenge on life and prove himself worthy of Jane.

His determination to achieve this dream reveals him to himself and to others. Like the life of Jack London, we follow Martin's journey, driven by his love of literature and enriched by his travels.

“You're not interested in my work. It's my fame. To become somebody is to be nobody.” Based on Jack LONDON

A dazzling one-man show performed by an enthusiastic and talented young actor, Enzo Beaughon. Simple and effective direction. Thank you for this wonderful rediscovery of Jack London.

Enzo Beaughon's interpretation of the characters brings the story to life.

Already seen at its creation, the show has really progressed thanks to the actor and the direction.

Thank you for this dreamlike moment.

I left the performance of «Martin Eden» transported. The sober staging shines with mastery, the actors light up the stage and the text, of a rare intensity, finds a splendid adaptation. It's an experience I urge you to share.
