Manon Massenet

Manon, a little pawn who becomes queen and ends up dull: a passionate opera, between love and money, suitable for young audiences.
The opera Manon retraces the journey of a young girl on her way to the convent, who flees her destiny to live the passions of the outside world. She meets the Chevalier Des Grieux, with whom she falls in love, but also other men with attractive riches. It is the story of life choices, relationships with others, money, risks and appearances.
It is an incessant game between emotions and reason. Manon pushes the limits and bets with fate. She strives to chart the path she decides, but at what cost?
It is by following this idea of ​​the game that the company directs this show. Three lyrical singers and an actor-acrobat play a part that escapes them, each wanting to impose their own rule in this game of their lives. This opera is a wonderful opportunity to approach the construction of a young adult life as a family.
