The Théâtres de la Ville continue their survey of the vast body of work from one of the greatest composers, with a visit from the rambunctious Sir John Falstaff. Dedicated to Shakespeare’s great comic creation of the round-bellied knight, Falstaff is Verdi’s opera in three acts adapted from the bard’s play, The Merry Wives of Windsor. Plotting to wheedle his way into the affections and wealth of two married women, Falstaff makes the mistake of sending them identical love letters. With the help of their friend Mistress Quickly, another favourite Shakespearean character, the wives counter with their own plan to outwit him.

Stage direction is by Denis Podalydès. In the pit is the Orchestre Philharmonique du Luxembourg which, along with the Chœur de l’Opéra de Lille, is led by internationally renowned conductor Antonello Allemandi.

After fifteen years of silence, Una - a young woman in her twenties - pays Ray a visit at his workplace, a photo of him in a trade magazine having put her on his track. The last time she saw him, she was twelve, he was forty, and they had a ‘relationship’. They haven’t set eyes on each other since.

Through gripping dialogue, each in turn reveals how their lives have been turned upside down, subjected to the judgement of others.
Allusions, hesitations, uncovered lies; until the final twist, the play keeps you guessing.

A figure of African-American dancing, Alonzo King is performing for the first time in Luxembourg with his troupe, LINES Ballet. Endowed with a natural sensuality, ten athletic women and men offer an astonishing emotional journey, just through dancing. King collaborated with the greatest on that occasion: jazz pianist Jason Moran created the play’s original soundtrack and Lisa Fischer, a Grammy Award laureate, commands with her gospel singing. A manner to display a humanistic dancing, where sweeping ensemble moves make way for sculptural and carnal duos, in a tireless quest for beauty.

By revisiting Molière's hilarious masterpiece, Olivier Lopez sets out to denounce the patriarchal order, its cruelty and the denial of the aspirations of youth. With Olivier Broche in the role of Harpagon!

Money money money. Harpagon imposes on his loved ones and his servants an austerity that turns into a nightmare: he abuses his house and baulks at every expense, to the point of plunging everyone into deep distress. Walled in terrible solitude since the death of his wife, his greed eats away at him like a disease that gets worse day after day. Her children, Élise and Cléante, endure and dream of emancipation, whether in their way of living, dressing or loving. Hypocrisy and lies certainly reign supreme, but little by little, everyone will challenge an order in complete decomposition...

After Rabudôru, love doll, Olivier Lopez completes his diptych around money as a source of happiness and conflict within the intimate and family circle. Carried by brilliant actors, his Miser preserves the purity and power of the word, while integrating, at the heart of the comedy, socio-economic subjects of our time. A timeless classic, in which past and present intertwine to reveal the complexity of the human condition!

In May 1940, Alex Bonn - born June 18, 1908 - was a young lawyer at the Luxembourg Bar, registered in 1932. He played an important role in the country's Jewish community and once represented the Jewish Consistory. At the centre of this reading are two unpublished texts by Alex Bonn: one, an unpublished nine-page article written in New York in October 1941, in the form of a report on the situation of Jews in Luxembourg in 1940/41. The other, a text relating to his relations with the Gestapo - in particular the trips he made through France, in the company of Gestapo agents towards Portugal. Indeed, at that time, Alex Bonn was trying to help organise the departure of Jews from Luxembourg. In this reading, Alex Bonn's two texts are complementary, in particular through extracts from other first-hand testimonies, such as the fifteen-page memoir of Sigismond Leib, general secretary of the Israelite Consistory, dated June 20, 1942. Alex Bonn, who himself emigrated to New York in April 1941, returned to the country after the war and continued his brilliant career as a lawyer.

In each of us there is a battle between contrasts, where shadow opposes light. In this story, freely inspired by Italo Calvino's Viscount Scattered, two musicians and an illustrator compartmentalise genres to explore this duality that makes our inner richness. In real time in front of the audience, they conjure up a dreamlike universe that unfolds, in black and white, to music influenced by jazz and electro. A fantastic crossing in search of beauty, including in our shadows.

Duration: 50 min
