About this event
Victor Hugo's classic play "Hernani" comes to life at Théâtre National de Nice "La Cuisine" under the direction of Laurent Brethome. This vibrant adaptation plunges the audience into 16th-century Spain, weaving together themes of love, betrayal, and power struggles. The staging centers on four main characters, with Doña Sol at the heart of the drama, surrounded by men driven by vengeance, ambition, and honor. Local amateur performers join the professional cast to embody the voices of the people, adding a unique collective energy to the production. "Hernani" is presented as a thrilling, fast-paced tragedy that puts both passion and the voice of the people center stage in Nice.
