Il Nerone

Athénée Théâtre Louis-Jouvet | Grand Théâtre de Dijon - from 02 March to 01 April 2022

Synopsis

Will of a 75-year-old composer, L'incoronazione di Poppea is the first opera where the dramatic complexity, voices and music merge to tell the omnipotence of Love. This Opera is a mosaic of scenes where the sublime rimes with the trivial, a poetic and historical fresco lead by the triumph of adulterous love. In a Rome paved with violent passions, Nero guides Poppea to the imperial Throne

Il Nerone/ L'Incoronazione di Poppea

By Charles Alexandre Creton

Il Nerone is a tale of blood shed for the sake of power and the most beautiful of love stories." Alain Françon

Fernando Escalona (Nerone), Marine Chagnon (Poppea) and Kseniia Proshina (Amore), artists in residence at the Academy, look back on their work with Alain Françon and Vincent Dumestre for a new production of The Coronation of Poppea entitled Il Nerone. Performed from 2 to 12 March at the Athénée Théâtre Louis-Jouvet, this performance by the Academy will go on tour to the Dijon Opera from 20 to 26 March and then to the Maison de la Culture in Amiens on 1 April.
