Unquestionably one of the most emblematic works of its author, marvelous musical universe and popular success, Jacques Offenbach gives us here a magnificent artistic setting. In a burst of madness and generosity, he depicts the joy of living, the show, the frenzy, the love, a certain madness, in short… La Vie Parisienne . A wealthy foreign baron arrives in Paris with his wife to taste the pleasures of the capital. A wealthy Parisian dreams of love with a Woman of the World. The Parisian is going to trick the Baron into stealing his wife. This is how La Vie Parisienne begins, in the hall of a station. From dinners in the living room, from frantic dancing to unforgettable evenings, the Baron will discover the crazy Parisian life! Behind this joyful and lively opera, Offenbach gives us a caustic critique of the upper middle class, its customs and its quirks. A tasty and sparkling musical journey.
