Attend the musical Molière, l’opéra urbain on March 8, 2025
Although March 8 is International Women’s Rights Day, you can also take the opportunity to treat yourself (or a woman) to a unique evening at the Dôme de Marseille! Molière, l’Opéra Urbain is an innovative musical show that brings together singers, slammers, rappers, dancers, actors and musicians, all in costumes and sets inspired by the 17th century. This original work tells the gripping story of Molière, a man who sacrificed material comfort and prestige to found a theater troupe alongside the woman he loved (the date of the show is perfect). This show takes you on a journey to the heart of artistic freedom to surprise, amuse and deduce.
