When Stanislas discovers at the age of 15 that he has insulin-dependent diabetes, the carefree childhood collapses in the face of the obviousness of the disease. The cheerful boy he was darkens and isolates himself. A meeting will change his life: Fleur. With her free and sunny personality, this young woman makes him discover the power of poetry, capable of re-enchanting a withered perception of reality, and giving meaning to existence in the face of death. The show is the story of this meeting, the friendship that followed, and the vital rebound it caused. With this energetic, humorous, and tender autobiographical story, Stanislas Roquette recounts the shock of medical diagnosis and the lights that life sometimes offers us in return. "Insulin & Magnolia" is also the story of an adolescent initiation into literature, in this case, French classical theater and poetry.
