Les Contes de Perrault Concert

Experience a lively and imaginative musical journey through the enchanting world of Charles Perrault at Salle Saint-Exupery in Menton. This concert brings beloved fairy tale characters to life as they intertwine in a whimsical story full of unexpected twists. Follow Little Thumb as he transforms into a charming prince, and watch Cinderella’s magical ascent to princesshood with the help of the Fairy Morgane—before facing the villainous Olibrius and his lair with Bluebeard.

Combining humorous scenes, vibrant characters, lighthearted melodies, and soaring romantic passages, this lyrical fantasy blends the charm of operetta, fairy tale magic, and French opera lyricism, featuring music by Offenbach, Félix Fourdrain, and Massenet. As in any good fairy tale, love triumphs and happiness follows, promising a magical evening for all.
