Special culture file. To illustrate this new season, we have chosen to pay tribute to the painter Gilles Aillaud. This man with multiple careers was a philosopher but also a man of the theater. This animal lover reveals through his work, an inner look that we each carry deep within us. This article is sponsored.

This 2024-2025 season will be placed under the sign of creation, and will give pride of place to the gaze of women through 4 new lyrical productions: L’Uomo Femina by Galuppi, a work where codes are reversed, and where women rule the world. It is with jubilation that Agnès Jaoui takes on this surprisingly modern 18th century fable. Le Château de Barbe-Bleue will be the first lyrical production of the Orchestre Français des Jeunes, carried by the energy and talent of its new conductor Kristiina Poska.
Amelie Niermeyer returns to Dijon to stage the most moving event in history: La Traviata. Alongside Dijon Burgundy Orchestraunder the direction of Debora Waldman, that Melody Louledjian will embody the tragic story of Violetta. Finally, it is between Paris and India that we will end the lyrical season with Bizet’s Les Pêcheurs de Perles. This prodigious score will be staged by Mirabelle Ordinaire, a member of the MET in New York for several years.
