À LA FOLIE
À la Folie follows in the tradition of "pocket operas". Unclassifiable, the show is at the crossroads of theatre and opera.
A voice is heard. It is that of the singer who sings what cannot be said. Her voice and her body express madness. She is accompanied not by a symphony orchestra bu...
