SUMMARY:The Barber of Seville
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \n\nwith l’Opéra Nomade\nAn ode to freedom and to life! \n12 March | 20h 30\nSunday\, March 13 | 16h 30 \nA new\, modern version of the Barber of Seville on the bicentennial of its creation. A fun farce with serenades\, duets and ensembles in this comic opera sung by the cast of the Opéra Nomade! \nFor this latest creation\, the ‘centre lyrique Clermont-Auvergne’ brings Rossini’s lyrical opera forward into the 50’s. An amorous old man wants to marry his ward\, but a younger man is having none of it! \nA personal touch to a great classic\, with plenty of vocal leeway for the players\, whilst respecting the original opera. \nWatch out for leading lady Elsa Dreisig\, young Franco Danish soprano. \n  \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_cta h2=”Is it a bird?

No – it’s a theatre!\nBy Henry Shaftoe \nThe Théâtre de l’Archipel has landed in Perpignan and its autumn/winter season is a real treat.\nLooking somewhat like the leftovers from an abandoned space station\, or the giant contents of a child’s toy box tipped on to a site by the river Têt\, the Théâtre de l’Archipel is in fact a recent project by celebrity French architect Jean Nouvel. \nLove or hate the exterior look of the place\, the auditoria it contains are excellent and the shows put on there are of the highest international standard. The biggest auditorium in the complex is called “Le Grenat” (the maroon blob in the picture) and I admit it took me a while to realise that this is a blatant visual reference to Perpignan’s reputation as the centre of garnet jewellery-making. \nThis is one of the finest performing arts complexes in France\, with a performance programme to match\, so if you have not already checked it out\, I urge you to do so. More information at www.theatredelarchipel.org or call in (between 12.00 and 18.30) for their free 100 page brochure. \nBy Courtney O’Brien-Brown \nThere is an exciting new addition to the Perpignan skyline. If you have been to Perpignan in the last few months you would have noticed a large construction along Avenue Général Leclerc and a giant concrete bubble. This bubble is ‬now‪ ‘the grenat\,’ a large theatre space accommodating 1100 guests and the venue of the Théâtre de l’Archipel. Designed by renowned French architect Jean Nouvel\, the theatre will bring a touch of prestige to the previously rundown edge of the city.‬ \n‪The new theatre and cultural precinct is designed to be an artistic & cultural hub for the city. Welcoming local and international artists\, it is hoped the precinct will encourage a spirit of multiculturalism and social tolerance.‬ \n‪There is something for everyone in the season line-up including theatre\, dance\, circus\, opera\, classical & contemporary music\, as well as a special programme for children. Some of the artists performing include Eric Cantona\, Thomas Dutronc and Yael Naim. Ticket prices range from 11€ to 40€.‬ \n‪For ticket and performance information you can visit the theatre website: www.theatredelarchipel.org Here you will be able to read more about “the grenat” and take a virtual tour of the site.‬ \n.[/vc_cta][/vc_column][/vc_row] \nShare this:\n				Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Click to share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n				Pinterest\n			\n\n	Related\n
