This production will undoubtedly stand as one of the most memorable of the Michel Franck era. For his final season as general and artistic director of the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées, he has made the excellent decision to revive Dialogues des Carmélites in Olivier Py’s unforgettable staging, running from December 4 to 12, 2024.

Poulenc’s masterpiece returns to the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées under the baton of American conductor Karina Canellakis. On this occasion, to signify the passage of time and the handover between generations, Patricia Petibon, who once delivered a remarkable performance as Blanche de la Force, now takes on the role of Mère Marie, while Vannina Santoni will play the new Blanche. Véronique Gens reprises her role as Madame Lidoine, and Sophie Koch takes on the role of Madame de Croissy, after having previously portrayed Mère Marie.
