The director of the Paris Opera, Stéphane Lissner will present the evening during a short introductory video.
Carmen by Bizet, from March 10 through July 16, 2017 at the Opéra Bastille
After a first season dedicated to La Damnation de Faust, members of the Berlioz Circle this year will be given the opportunity to discover the mysteries of Saint-Saëns’ Samson et Dalila and Berlioz’ Béatrice et Bénédict. As generous art-loving philanthropists, our members have already had the privilege of meeting Stéphane Lissner, Director of the Paris Opera, and the young Italian stage director Damiano Michieletto.
From visits behind the scenes and tours of the Opéra Bastille’s studios, to concerts, private rehearsals and encounters with the artists themselves, the remainder of the programme will not fail to surprise.
Join the Berlioz Circle and embark on a journey into the heart of creation!
On April 19, 2016 at the Palais Garnier, AROP members had the opportunity to participate in a discussion with dancer Laura Hecquet. Named an Étoile at the Paris Opera on March 23, 2015, the former AROP prizewinner was kind enough to share her passion for dance with the audience and evoked the key moments of her career.
Due to illness, Brigitte Fassbaender will be replaced in the role of the Narrator for this evening’s performance by Franz Mazura.

Paris City Hall has made it official: fruits and vegetables will soon be growing on the terraced roofs of the Opéra Bastille! Yes, the project for sustainable development “Parisculteurs” has chosen 47 sites, including the Opéra Bastille, with the intention of replanting sites around the city to promote the development of urban agriculture. A total of 5.5 hectares have been allocated to create green spaces and/or produce foodstuffs for localised distribution networks. After the publication of the technical specifications of each site on April 14, 2016, the project’s participants (farmers, landscapers, architects, agricultural entrepreneurs, start-ups, artists and associations) have until the summer to prepare their applications. In the autumn of 2016, an international jury will unveil the final projects that have been selected.
