Isabelle Huppert Reads Sade

Mon dieu, we need a lie down even thinking of this. Hyperprolific French screen badass Isabelle Huppert calls in at the Southbank Centre for one night only with this one-woman-show culled from the timelessly controversial works of notorious libertine the Marquis de Sade. 'Isabelle Huppert Reads Sade' is performed in French with English surtitles and is drawn from Sade's novels ‘Nouvelle Justine’, about a virtuous woman whose morals lead her to misery, and ‘Juliette’, about her debauched sister who leads a rather more enjoyable life. Tickets go on sale on Wednesday Feb 28 at 10am.
