The cafe theatre des chartrons in Bordeaux, France, offered to create this very special comedy, both fantastic and romantic and the play attracted more than 2000 people.

But one night, as he knocks on her door, she’s about to find out that her serial lover is also the serial killer the telly is talking about and that behind his crimes, he hides a heavy secret.

Eleanor needs to have sex – at least that’s what her sister thinks. Eleanor has finally agreed to a blind-date, although the last thing she was expecting was a Frenchman who doesn’t speak English. Between awkward introductions and mis-understandings, Eleanor’s date seems to be going rather well until her sister arrives in the arms of Jeremy – the real blind-date. What should have been an exciting evening for Eleanor turns into total disaster. Still, this may turn out to be the best blind-date Eleanor’s had since.well, who wants to remember a number like that?
