Marguerite express
Wednesday, July 13, 9:30 p.m.
Garden of the Jean-Lurçat museum
Daughter of Good King René of Anjou, crowned Queen of England at the age of 15, deposed and returned to France following 17 years of reign, Marguerite of Anjou is the main heroine of The Wars of the Roses which opposed the two famous English families of the Lancasters and the Yorks. However… France ignores her and England has erased this “bloody queen” from her history. Marguerite express, the incredible and long life of Marguerite d’Anjou, is a festive, popular and demanding show at the service of professional integration as well as the promotion of the history and heritage of our territory. Directed by Charline Porrone and Thomas Joly by the students of the Professional Orientation Cycle of the Regional Conservatory of the City of Angers, cycle in partnership with the Quai-CDN.
