The students of the Lycée Branly in Dreux present a play written by Evgueni Schwart in 1944: "In a distant country, we find a village with the most original customs. A dragon has settled there, it is both terrifying, vile and very relaxed. Lancelot, the "professional hero" of this story, discovers this atypical village and decides to save it from the dragon. The inhabitants, meanwhile, are benevolent, kind, helpful, and of great kindness. But behind their false smiles lies a terrible truth..." This humorous spectacle denounces a totalitarian society in which men, women and children are the victims of their lack of reflection. https://archives28.fr/ateliers-culturels-et-educatifs/journees-du-patrimoine-16-et-17-septembre-2023/representation-theatrale--le-dragon
