The partnership is beginning to be well established: on the day following All Saints’ Day, this is the 5th time that the Secours Populaire de la Haute-Vienne has taken over the hall of the Limoges Opera. Around a hundred students are present. During school holidays, in fact, the Faculty of Letters, where the association carries out its weekly distributions, is closed. So the Opera offered to help.
“Today, there are no shows, we have the stage rehearsing, staff at the reception, and the spaces necessary to accommodate Secours Populaire, so much the better!“, summarizes George Ottavy, responsible for development at the Opera. The place intrigues the students a little, but some are already used to it, and appreciate the possibility of taking a break upstairs, following having left their shopping bag in the locker. This is an opportunity to discuss, “between us, but also with the volunteers who distribute“note Elsa and Shanese.

Once back down, the two friends discover that the Opera invites them, if they wish, to a symphony concert at the beginning of December, and their smile widens: “I have never been there “. Then head to the ticket office. 60% of students generally do the same, according to the Opera. This policy of social openness of the Opera was mentioned this Tuesday in the program Ma France on France Bleu (around 12:22 p.m.).
