Open-air popular theater festival in Bergeracois, Dordogne
About Théâtre du Roi de Cœur
Popular theater rooted in Dordogne
The Théâtre du Roi de Cœur (TROC) company is based in the town of Maurens, a few kilometers north of Bergerac. Every summer, about fifteen actors and show business professionals take over the village to create and rehearse original shows for several weeks, before presenting them to the public during a fifteen-day open-air festival.
An itinerant festival in Bergeracois
The festival is not limited to a single location: the shows are performed in the fields of Maurens, but also in Bergerac, La Force, Liorac-sur-Louyre, and many other villages and towns in the Dordogne. This itinerant format allows theater to be brought closer to the inhabitants, in a spirit of theater accessible to the greatest number.
Values of conviviality and commitment
The TROC champions values of conviviality, artistic excellence, accessibility for all, and rural anchoring. The shows blend humor, poetry, and commitment, with free adaptations of tales and original creations. Tickets are offered at a free price or at moderate rates to promote access to culture.
