After La Dame de chez Maxim, Sivadier has returned, accompanied with many of his regular actors, in order to perform this time, one of his own plays, a very curious theatrical machine that delves into the work of Wilde and Shakespeare, and covers a wide variety of different tones, from the lyrical to the trivial, and even outright farce. Once again, Salome shall dance before Herod, her step-father, in order to get the head of Lokanaan, known as the Baptist, on a silver platter. But this time, the daughter of Herodias will not be the only one to dance for the Tetrarque…different theaters, different desires will continually be crossing paths with each other in this drama where the moon is like a keyhole to which God has glued his eye.
