The Show
Immerse yourself in Beijing opera, an elite Chinese theatrical art form classified by UNESCO, and let yourself be swept away by an unforgettable experience!
Beijing opera (京剧) is a traditional theatrical art form that brings together the most vibrant elements of Chinese culture. With its bright colours and rousing music, this traditional art takes us on a journey into a world of legendary tales through song, dance, lyrics and acrobatics.
Today's event transports you to a world of grace and expression with its choreography, where sword dancing reveals an energy brimming with strength and elegance. The talented choreographers, dressed in stunning costumes and masks, use stylized, codified movements to amaze audiences with their graceful, expressive presentation. They'll draw you into a world of talent and passion for this ancient art.
You'll be captivated by La Vie champêtre, which depicts the daily life of a little girl looking after her house and doing her embroidery. La Joie features an old-fashioned young woman expressing her joy at leaving home. You'll be enchanted by the majestic handling of her long sleeves, which add a touch of grace to her performance. Finally, to close the show on a high note, you'll witness a lilting dance between an elegant woman and her dynamic maid, both lulled by the pleasant ambience of a sunny day.
You'll be immersed in a veritable artistic journey, where every detail is carefully orchestrated for your enjoyment.
Notre programmation démarre par une découverte passionnante de cet art millénaire lors d’une introduction générale sur l’opéra de Pékin.

À la fin de ce voyage visuel et musical, le public aura l’opportunité de s’immerger dans cet art en imitant les gestes pour en explorer ses subtilités.
