Description

The Theatre Group of the University of Cyprus in cooperation with the Sophia Foundation for Children present the famous black comedy mystery "8 Femmes" written by French playwright Robert Thomas in 1962.

Spoofy murder-mystery farce 8 Femmes is set in a snow-bound mansion in 1950s France. Teenager Catherine tells her shocked family she's found her 'Papa' dead in bed, apparently murdered. Everyone is a suspect - Catherine's sister Suzon, their mother Gaby, Gaby's sister Augustine, the dead man's sister Pierrette, her mother 'Mamy', even the maid Louise and housekeeper Mme Chanel. As the accusations (and fur) start to fly and the family's various skeletons are dragged out of their closets the eight women find out more about each other, the deceased - and themselves - than they could ever have dreamt of.
