Lully-Molière: Le Mariage forcé
Fully staged production
- Early Music Festival
Ticket prices
A rare occasion when the audience will get to watch a stage play and hear a piece of music at the same time. "Of course," many people will say. "That's what happens every time someone purchases a ticket for an opera performance." This time, however, is something different: Molière's 1664 play, for which Lully composed music. The genre of the work, a comédie-ballet combining a dramatic plot, singing and dancing was invented by the two of them. Le Mariage forcé, their first collaboration together, will come to life on the stage at Müpa Budapest in a joint production by Le Concert Spirituel orchestra, Les Malins Plaisirs Theatrical Company and Dance Company L'Eventail conducted by Hervé Niquet.
Coproduction of Les Malins Plaisirs Theatrical Company, Le Concert Spirituel orchestra, la Compagnie de danse L'Eventail, Angers-Nantes Opéra, the Grand T - Scène nationale de Nantes, l'Atelier Lyrique de Tourcoing, the Operas of Massy, Reims, and Grand Avignon, the Théâtre Alexandre Dumas de Saint-Germain-en-Laye, the Centre de Musique Baroque de Versailles, the Théâtre Montansier de Versailles, la Barcarolle - Scène conventionnée du Pays de Saint-Omer and the town of Touquet-Paris-Plage
The concert will be preceded, at 6.00 pm, by an introductory presentation by János Mácsai entitled Prelude in the Glass Hall. The program will be open to anyone holding a ticket for the performance, but subject to prion registration on our website.
