Contemporary theatre arrives in the heart of Monaco with Mon jour de chance, the comedy written by Patrick Haudecœur and Gérald Sibleyras, scheduled for May 13, 2026 at 8:00 PM at the prestigious Grimaldi Forum Monaco. The performance, lasting 1 hour and 30 minutes without an intermission, is produced by the Théâtre Princesse Grace and directed by José Paul.
A witty and reflective stage play that blends comedy and introspection, inviting audiences to question one of life’s most universal themes: the weight of choices and the role of destiny.
At the center of the story is Sébastien, played by Guillaume de Tonquédec, who spends a weekend with childhood friends and recalls an old habit: making life decisions by rolling a dice.
One memory in particular stands out. Sébastien remembers a night when he rolled a “four”. He is convinced that if he had rolled a “six” instead, his life would have taken a completely different and happier path.
From this simple idea unfolds a humorous yet profound reflection on chance, missed opportunities and the possibility of metaphorically re-living key moments in life.
The play is directed by José Paul, known for his ability to combine comedic rhythm with emotional depth.
Alongside Guillaume de Tonquédec, the cast includes Loïc Legendre, Lysiane Meis, Jean Franco and Caroline Maillard, who bring energy and nuance to the story.
The performance is part of Monaco’s cultural season and reinforces the central role of theatre in the Principality’s artistic landscape. The Grimaldi Forum Monaco continues to establish itself as one of the Riviera’s leading cultural venues, hosting major international productions.
Through a light yet deeply universal story, Mon jour de chance invites audiences to reflect on the “what ifs” of life and how much chance truly shapes our destiny.
A must-see event for contemporary theatre lovers, blending entertainment and reflection in a prestigious setting.
