“A sublime piece that illuminates the extraordinary destiny of a feminist artist ...
Wendy Beckett’s play makes us want to dive back into Anais Nin’s notebooks.”

“It’s been a long time since I had seen such a beautiful setting and such successful and sumptuous costumes. Visually too, it’s a treat.
This dramaturgical evocation of ‘one of the lives’ of Anais Nin is therefore a true and indisputable success.”

“Célia Catalifo, Mathilde Libbrecht and Laurent Maurel are impressive in the roles of: Anaïs, June and Henry.
Wendy Beckett subtly shows us a sensual and amorous progression [where] we arrive at love scenes and sex scenes which are very intense, very successful.
Laurent d’Olce is amazing, especially in the last scene where the roles are reversed between the therapist and his patient. A magnificent transfer… We also experience d’Olce playing Anais Nins father and come to understand the crushing weight of the father in Anais Nin’s life..”

“The scene of reunion between father and daughter is of incredible poetry and power, at once pathetic and moving.
Laurent D’Olce is beautiful.
… particular mention to the love scenes, very successful, erotic ballets extremely well choreographed…”

“If you only had to see one piece during the season
... do not let this one go, which is at the very top of what - on stage - can be presented to us.
Costumes as abundant as they are sumptuous combine elegance with character ...
Thanks to Wendy Beckett’s double talent as author and director, we will enter this world as passionate as it is exciting.”

“On stage, these free, incredibly complex relationships, essential engines of writing, are drawn with class by a trio of actors full of energy, enthusiasm and determination.
Laurent Maurel offers an effervescent Miller… Mathilde Libbrecht draws June in relief, to make a beautiful character elusive bitch. Célia Catalifo in Anaïs Nin is a poem.”

“The contrasting elegance of the female costumes, the suppleness of the two actresses, the rhythm of the dialogues supported by the music all contribute to the charm of this evocation.”

“The atmosphere of the 30s, the freedom and voluptuousness of a liberated generation, are ultimately very well realised and will delight the public of our time ...”
