La Cité Bleue opens its doors and all its spaces: from the artists' dressing rooms to the rehearsal studio, from the backstage to the music room, via the stage and the hall, the entire world of theatrical magic will be revealed.
Much more than a simple tour to discover the new theatre, we are offering you a veritable musical promenade in the presence of Leonardo García Alarcón and numerous guest artists, who will offer you several surprise musical performances in different areas of the theatre, as well as a demonstration of the Constellation electro-acoustic system and its extraordinary versatility.
The same route will take place three times during the day: we'll be waiting for you outside the entrance to La Cité Bleue, for an open-air performance, before being guided inside. The artistic programme will be varied and surprising, ranging from a vertical dance on the walls of the theatre to a ritual procession in the Quechua language, taking us through a whirlwind of different atmospheres, from the mysterious nocturnes of Chopin to the baroque arias of Monteverdi and Falvetti, from the Argentine tangos of Aníbal Troilo and Astor Piazzolla to the songs of Enrico Caruso.
The bar at La Cité Bleue will remain open throughout the event. Tickets are available from 30 minutes before the booked time.
