Sinopsis

Les Sincères is a comedic play by French playwright Pierre Marivaux. Played in one act and in prose, it was performed for the first time by the Comédiens italiens on January 13, 1739 at the Hotel de Bourgogne in Paris. In this play, Marivaux focuses on what happens to love when the main virtue in which the characters pride themselves is absolute sincerity. The ultimate result is a negative one. The whole play is based on the theme of sincerity, or “the insincerity of being sincere”. Marivaux does not present two sincere characters, only two people who wear the mask of sincerity. They believe straightforwardness is a quality, but only when it is a one-way action: they enjoy being sincere - in other words, saying what they think - when speaking of other people, but do not appreciate it when it is directed at them.
