The Wedding Speech

A comedy by Laurent Tirard

Adrien is stuck. Stuck at a family dinner where his father is telling the same old story he always tells, his mother is serving up the same leg of lamb she always cooks, and his sister, Sophie, is hanging on every word uttered by her future husband as if he were Einstein, or something. So, Adrien waits. Waits for Sonia to answer his text and end the month-long «break» she wanted. But he gets no reply. And to top it all, Ludo, his future brother-in-law, asks him if he’ll make a speech at their wedding. Jeez, he didn’t see that coming! Adrien’s anguish turns to panic. But what if this speech turns out to be the making of him?
