Napoleon is in trouble. Due to the scale and shape of his chapeau, his spies cannot approach his ears to whisper the fruits of their espionage, leaving him ignorant of Josephine's treacherous whoring. In order to regain control of his empire and his marriage, he must undergo a strategic makeover at the hands of his (secretly Russian) milliner and PomPom de la Tour Awfful, stylist to ascendant dictators. However, nobody knows the darkest secret in the heart of this strangely tall emperor, and neither can anyone predict when André Bréton will swoop in, armed with murderous marshmallows...
The surrealist bilingual extravaganza featuring Antony Apostolov, Hugo Palacias, Gabriel Velasquez Anton Schendl and myself. Selected and performed at the Montmartre Dionysia, Paris, of December 2014, then au Petit Theatre du Bonheur, Paris, Spring 2015.
