The play tells of a group of friends who organized a dinner party where everyone has to bring the most stupid it finds. Their imperative is to overcome the daily monotony and boredom. Pierre Brochant and his trusted friends have devised a very simple principle, able to ensure that at least once a week, laughs disclaimers. It is essentially this: each of them invites you to dinner and a perfect idiot at the end of the evening wins led the most stupid of all, the complete idiot. On Wednesday becomes a key event. This time Pierre was beside himself with joy. He dug out a person who might assicuragli the prize. The idiot in question is called Francois Pignon, the world champion of idiocy! Not so tasty and elegant in this comedy. Mr. François Pignon, an official of the Ministry of Finance which has as a hobby building model with matches, is above all things, a troublemaker, a jinx, so he can turn the situation through, so to speak, from victim to perpetrator , creating a series of problems with its potential host, putting into the marriage crisis in a crescendo of gaffes, gags and misunderstandings really divertenti.La Dinner Game is a mechanism for high-alcoholic content of perfidy. The wacky, with a smile, as if was to carry the most natural thing in the world, suddenly appear to upset the plans, destroy peace, complicate the life and work, to lose money, time, mood, appetite, and productivity throughout this without malice, without remorse and without reason. Stupidly. This is defined at one point antagonism "the avenger of all the idiots in the world." In the narrative mechanism orchestrated by Veber there is something - the construction and pressing 'right' of the plot, the tone lively and happily ironic, the malice of the talks - which can also recall the tradition of vaudeville. This is a play on the growing mechanism of destabilization, with each new project is the idiot to lead inevitably to a catastrophe that takes proportion gradually growing and increasingly uncontrollable and devastating. Brochant, which now shows a clear psychological submission in respect of its host, eventually come to accept the pervasive presence with a kind of forlorn, masochistic resignation. The conflict can not have solutions accommodating, delicious rassicuranti.Il tail strike will end then to mock the ritual closing of the "happy ending" and stay on this side of any false moralism. It will be a new rash enough of the poor fool, just his word too, and harmony so laboriously regained come again to tear, and the idiot will reaffirm, loudly, its reasons, its inexhaustible, irrepressible and paroxysmal destructive energy.
