Opéra bouffe " La surprise du Marquis"

‘When opera-bouffe goes off the rails with panache’

A grumpy old marquis, firmly entrenched in his convictions, yet not without a certain taste for fun.
Opposite him is a devoted housekeeper and shrewd strategist, who seems intent on springing a delightful surprise on him.
But in this sparkling opera-bouffe, nothing is ever quite what it seems.
Behind the façade lies a web of masks, jealousies and twists, where roles become blurred and the characters clash with delightful mischief.
Lively arias, offbeat situations and biting humour combine to create a theatrical and lyrical gem, full of wit and audacity, where the music drives a genuine dramatic twist.
