An updated and stylised view of 17th century aristocratic French culture. Set in the modern day fashion industry, foppish and whimsical characters are updated into models, designers and PAs inhabiting a world around the bitter and recluse photographer Alceste and his belle dame sans merci, Celimene. In this context, the play highlights the inescapable dominion of the modern fashion world and the effects it can have on one’s own ability to separate passions and personality, from one’s duty and responsibility to the industry.
