Jean-Baptiste LULLY - Monsieur de Pourceaugnac
Acclaimed by the public, this production of Monsieur de Pourceaugnac has never ceased to seduce since its creation in 2015… which is why it is revived this season, for a third consecutive year of touring! Product of the combined inspiration of Molière and of Lully, this comédie-ballet, first performed at Chambord to entertain the Court, is a true carnaval-like whirlwind where music and choreography give rhythm to the story of the setbacks of a provincial squire lost in the capital. It is impossible to separate the comedy from the music in this show where the singers become full-blown actors and where the musicians of Les Arts Florissants act on stage, playing the crowd – a constituent element of the staging which takes place in the 1950’s.
