Etats "Dame"

Lyrical fantasy around the mysterious character of Jean Cocteau's Lady of Monte-Carlo

« When you die among the dead, when you drag yourself among the living, when everything leaves you at the door and closes it with a gust of wind, no longer being young and loved... » … you can alway try your luck with a trip to Monte Carlo!

Poulenc’s music and Jean Cocteau’s prose pay a masterful tribute to the mysterious Lady of Monte-Carlo, but who is she really ?

Vibrations of opera in close combat, emotions of a voice in all its states. An unusual and captivating path.

Caught between the memory of a tumultuous past and the desire for a brighter future, a story of a woman from laughter and tears, lyrical or more intimate confessions.

This extraordinary lyrical and theatrical show invites us to appreciate a wide repertoire of Schubert's Lied, Clara Schumann, through the intimate atmospheres of Debussy and Rodrigo, without forgetting the great opera arias from Puccini to Poulenc, and a few other surprises ...

Works for piano and voice - but also piano solo, which honor women composers.
The male composers who knew how to look into the feminine soul (Schubert, Poulenc...) are also in the programme. Composers who knew how to probe the woman soul in all its dimensions and subtleties.

If you've never dared to open the door of an opera, the time has come. The theater will take you through the process gently, far from the dusty moth-eaten "clichés" of the genre ...
