Flashdance
at La Seine Musicale 

« What a feeling, being’s believing »… We have all sung out loud the iconic lyrics of the musical Flashdance. Well, you now have a unique opportunity to see the authentic musical live on the stage of La Seine Musicale. Save the date for Saturday, April 27th, at 3pm and 8pm. The show will take you into the daily life of Alex Owens, a worker by day, cabaret dancer by night. The whole experience will include a set similar to what Adrian Lyne envisioned, and the most iconic music such as: "What a Feeling", "Manhunt" or even "Maniac". We can't wait!

The Bird Syndrome
at Théâtre Montansier  

Through this heartbreaking closed-door drama, directors Sara Giraudeau and Renaud Meyer take us into the story of a woman kept prisoner in an unwelcoming apartment, by a cold and tough man. Her only escape? Her imagination and madness, which allow her to believe she can be a bird, and fly away from this cage. A play that is both cruel and wonderfully poetic.

Mata Hari, Temporary Title
 at the Bouffon Théâtre

She was labeled as a spy, but she was much more than that. In this one-woman show, Olivia Algazi portrays Mata Hari, inviting us to (re)discover the story of this 20th-century icon. From the woman who dreams of freedom, of dance, and of an international career. We witness her triumphs and her falls. A powerful piece about one of the most remarkable figures of her time.

**Mata Hari, Provisional Title** **Bouffon Theatre** 26-28 Meaux Street - 19th April 5th and 11th at 7pm, April 8th at 9pm [More info](https://bouffontheatre.fr/show/mata-hari-titre-provisoire) **Eurydice** at Lucernaire Theatre It all begins like an idyllic love story. Orpheus and Eurydice meet on a train platform and fall madly in love. But of course, nothing ever goes so smoothly. In a tragic accident, Eurydice loses her life. A certain Mr. Henri then offers Orpheus the chance to reunite with his love at the gates of death. A story of love, life, and destiny that Jean Anouilh contemplates with daring modernity.
