“Sébastien spends a weekend with his childhood friends. They remember that, in the past, they let fate decide for them and made all decisions by rolling dice. Sébastien clearly remembers an evening when he rolled a four. If he had rolled a six, his life would have been completely different, and he is absolutely convinced of this.

But what if destiny offered him the chance to play again?

A play that is not only funny, but which asks questions about our lives and the choices we make.

Does luck really exist? And if so, how much does it matter in our personal journey. Is luck a key factor that defines our life?

These questions generate extremely comical situations, and laughter erupts in the hall, night after night. An original comedy, in which the absurd intertwines with finesse and from which we learn that, sometimes, more attempts are needed to understand that happiness can be right there, before our eyes, from the very beginning.

A must-see show, which does a lot of good and seriously puts the facial muscles to work!”

“Dialogues finely crafted like lace. The laughter doesn't stop!” — Le Figaro

„A well-oiled mechanism, with extremely  comic situations.” — Théâtral Magazine
