Le Carnaval (gastronomique) des animaux

Amphithéâtre Olivier Messiaen - from 22 to 28 March 2022

Synopsis

On the menu of this social and political farce, the music of Saint-Saëns gives life to a goofy bestiary fighting against the tyranny of the Lion King during a cooking competition. A burlesque universe where the aesthetic of Grimms and Perrault tales meets Tex Avery and the Warner.

Prices:

  • Adult €5
  • Under 15 €4
  • School 5€  

The Paris Opera has launched special performances called “Relax”. These performances guarantee a kind and inclusive welcome to facilitate theatre visits to the disabled persons (autism, multiple disabilities, mental disability, Alzheimer's disease…) whose handicap can cause atypical or unpredictable behaviours during the performance. Both the audience and the artists are informed before the performance and the usual codes are less strict to ensure that everyone can enjoy the show and fully live their emotions, without fear of being judged.

Duration : 1h00 no interval
