Presentation

This opera, featuring three singers, ten musicians and one dancer, is performed outdoors against the backdrop of the château.

Lalilo is a poetic-lyrical tale, a eulogy of hope in which it is whispered that true beauty comes from being different. In this performance, you will witness the metamorphosis of a boy prey to his torments and the difficulty of existing in a world where we like to erase differences.
