On the occasion of the addition of his ballet Rhapsodies to the repertoire, South African choreographer Mthuthuzeli November will be in conversation with José Martinez, Director of Dance, to reflect on his training, his career as a performer, and his collaborative work in the studio with the dancers of the Paris Opera Ballet.

For the second consecutive season, the Paris Opera is offering monthly encounters with artists to shed light on upcoming productions, just days before opening night. Titled Toï toï toï, these exclusive events held at the Amphitheatre or Studio of the Opéra Bastille give audiences a chance to discover new productions or explore the repertoire, and to engage directly with the artists at the end of each session.
