Philémon et Baucis

{"title":"Phil\u00e9mon et Baucis","description":"Kim Crofts stages a contemporary puppet-opera adaptation of Haydn and Ovid, blending spoken text with operatic arias for an intimate, poetic retelling of the myth of Philemon and Baucis. Table puppets and masks create layered, tactile tableaux while Rapha\u00ebl Merlin leads the musical direction with a chamber orchestra. Singers Sophie Nego\u00efta, Faustine Egiziano, Maxence Billiemaz and David Ferreira bring vocal character. The production balances classical source material with playful visual invention.\r\n\r\n\u003Cstrong\u003EIn French.\u003C\/strong\u003E","start_date":"2026-05-09","end_date":"2026-05-10","date":"9 - 10 May ","timings":[{"timing_start_date":"20260509T110000Z","timing_end_date":"20260509T165000Z"},{"timing_start_date":"20260510T110000Z","timing_end_date":"20260510T165000Z"}]}
