Here’s your chance to meet Panisse, Fanny and César, the characters after whom legendary chef Alice Waters and her associates named their famous Berkeley restaurants! Originally produced in Paris in 1929, Marius is the first play of Pagnol’s Fannie trilogy that has delighted international audiences of stage and screen for generations. An audacious alternative to the usual boulevard comedies of its time, Marius boldly presented the wonderful working class characters of the seaport of Marseille. A story of youth, love and yearning, this brand-new world-premiere translation — the first new English translation in over 70 years — is as heartfelt today as it was when initially presented.
