Come and discover a work session based on the ballet Sylvia by Manuel Legris, a special moment of sharing where Ballet dancers prepare before going on stage. Places are limited.
Rehearsals punctuate the daily work of the dancers of the Paris Opera Ballet. They take place every day, after dance classes, in the studios of the Palais Garnier and Opéra Bastille with coaches, ballet masters and choreographers.
Originally conceived by Louis Mérante, Sylvia was the first ballet to be performed at the newly-opened Palais Garnier in 1876, to a brilliant score by Léo Delibes, who also composed Coppélia.
But it is the version by Manuel Legris, a Paris Opera Étoile dancer and the director of the Teatro alla Scala Ballet Company, that is making its repertoire debut.
