Documentary - Paris Opera : Romeo, Juliet, Thomas and the others

    Studio Bastille

    20h

We invite you to attend the premiere screening of this documentary directed by Priscilla Pizzato, about the creation of the new production of the opera Romeo and Juliet, staged during the 2022/2023 season.

Thomas Jolly tackled the masterpiece Romeo and Juliet at the Paris Opera. How do you respect everyone's constraints and deal with the needs of the singers, orchestra, chorus and technical artists, without ever losing sight of your artistic project? At once a dream factory and a huge ocean liner, the Paris Opera reveals itself in all its complexity. But above all, this documentary delves into Thomas Jolly's psyche, his vision of the work and the theatre, with its flashes of insight and impatience, its humour and sensitivity.
