At the court of a frivolous Duke, his jester mocks the fathers and husbands of the women he has seduced, certain that his own daughter is safe from such misadventures. But he doesn't know that the Duke has already set eyes on her... Ingeniously imagined as a work within a work, this Rigoletto for young audiences uses theatrical magic and acrobats to soften the original darkness of Verdi's opera. It will also be an opportunity to meet up with director Manuel Renga and his team, who delighted us at the beginning of the year with their Elixir of Love.

To fully live this new participatory adventure, young and old are invited to participate in song learning workshops.

Single price 7 €
