Let’s discover the new luminous exhibition at the EDF Foundation
For its new cultural season, the EDF Foundation is taking on an unprecedented challenge: to bring dance and works of art into conversation. Surrounding a display of pieces never before shown to the public, dancers and choreographers will come together to engage with these creations. A connection woven between the arts that follows a very specific thread: that of light. It’s a chance to rediscover the works of Raoul Dufy, Julio Le Parc, and Man Ray in a whole new light. And be prepared, you just might be dazzled!

Dive into the thrilling history of Sarah Bernhardt at the Palais-Royal Theater
She brought to life the greatest works of Musset, Hugo, and Racine. She captivated Mucha, Rostand, and Cocteau. Sarah Bernhardt, undoubtedly one of the greatest French actresses, rises from her ashes on the stage of the Palais-Royal thanks to a lively musical play that strays far from the often too academic standards of biopics. An exceptional piece, led by a young actress, Estelle Meyer, whose talent is almost as great as that of the legendary lady whose shoes she steps into.

Get ready for a little leap back in time: this play invites you into Paris in 1942, in the heart of the occupied zone, right into the business life of a fabric warehouse. You'll meet a boss who seems straight out of a Pagnol story, his wife, their daughter, a young Jewish-Breton employee, and an old worker who shows up with a completely collaborative new friend.
