The Blue Hour

At dawn, as night slowly gives way to day, La Cité Bleue invites you to experience a rare moment with two concerts called L’Heure Bleue, created by pianist and composer Alain Roche.

Playing piano as the sky softly brightens—neither fully night nor day—this delicate moment becomes the perfect setting for music that listens to silence rather than imposes itself. It’s a gentle, immersive, almost meditative experience where music blends with the passage of time.

About the play
1942. France is under occupation. Seven friends gather to celebrate Sophie’s birthday—until two German officers are shot beneath their windows. Kaubach, a Nazi commander, forces the guests to make an unthinkable choice: to designate two hostages among themselves.
Thus begins a harrowing struggle for survival. By confronting the depths of human nature, the play invites us to question which side we would have chosen.

In French.

28 April – 13 May
