Enter the heart of creation and discover the artists at work!

The Paris National Opera offers Arop members the privilege of observing the work of the artists and the genesis of a production at different times: work sessions, pre-dress rehearsals and dress rehearsals.

LE PARC

‘What is love today?’ asked Angelin Preljocaj in 1994, when he created Le Parc for the Paris Opera. Thirty years later, the world has continued to change, but his ageless ballet has travelled the world.

In a French-style garden, the choreographer draws us into the seductive games of the Grand Siècle and the Age of Enlightenment, summoning up our classical musical and literary imagination: famous pages by Mozart, the Map of Tendre and Liaisons dangereuses.

But Angelin Preljocaj breaks with tradition by introducing a contemporary soundtrack and a choreographic language composed of broken lines and sensual surges.

Like the final pas de deux, where the bodies whirl around for a languorous kiss: a moment of grace that has become the signature of this ballet.
