In French with English surtitles.
Duration: approximately 2h30 with intermission.
This play is appropriate for high school audiences and adults due to language.
Created at the Théâtre du Palais Royal in Paris in 2005, the comedy TOC TOC was written by Laurent Baffie and has been seen by millions of spectators around the world.
Laurent Baffie: “I always try to put people in situations where they would not normally meet. As a child I had an obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) myself, and at the time, people didn’t talk about it. As I researched the subject, I realized that it was a serious issue and that it needed to be treated with sensitivity, without making fun of the people affected.”
In this play, six patients with six different obsessive-compulsive disorders meet in the waiting room of Dr Stern, a specialist in the treatment of OCD. This internationally renowned neuro-psychiatrist only consults in France once every 2 or 3 years, and never sees the same patient twice. But the doctor’s plane is stuck in Frankfurt. To pass the time, Fred, Sandie, Blanche, Marie, Lili and Bob get to know each other and share their stories and their respective conditions. The final result is some real therapy, along with a lot of bickering and humor along the way. A light, funny play that tries to dispel all the preconceptions about OCD sufferers.
