Launching the dance season, the Gala is one of the Paris Opera’s key events. On the stage of the Palais Garnier, the traditional Ballet Parade brings together the students of the Ballet School and all the dancers of the Company. This will be followed by two works by William Forsythe: Rearray, a duet making its repertoire debut, and Blake Works I, created for the Paris Opera Ballet in 2016 to electro-songs by James Blake.

Finally, the Opera presents for the first time the dreamlike world of Swedish choreographer Johan Inger with Impasse, questioning the relationship between the group and the individual and set to colourful music by Ibrahim Maalouf and Amos Ben-Tal.
