Highlights

Synopsis

Written in French in the late 1940s before Waiting for Godot, Eleutheria is about a young man at odds with his middle-class family, living alone in a bedsit and refusing to take part in 'normal' life while accepting handouts from his mother.

Often richly comic, it contains elements of high farce and draws on the traditions of French boulevard comedy and melodrama.
