maquette Cassandra
For many teams at La Monnaie, Cassandra begins today! In the Grand Foyer, director Marie-Eve Signeyrole, set designer Fabien Teigné and dramaturg Louis Geisler presented their staging and set design concept to the house. We can already make one prediction (you better believe it!): Cassandra will be an opera project like no other. In its ambition to work out almost every aspect of the creation process in an ecologically responsible way, to actively involve the audience of La Monnaie and Brussels and to give a place to the voice of today's Cassandras, it challenges us to do things radically differently. Opening night is on 10 September 2023, but already throughout the coming season we are organising numerous activities and workshops around this production. Because Cassandra, that's now!
