Noon, time for lunch or time for the death knell? Conceived by the baroque artists of the Basse altitude company, L'Échappée chantante is an irresistible musical-theatrical road trip for a funeral procession.
Imagine a pocket orchestra preparing to celebrate the memory of who knows who with all the pomp and circumstance. But then, almost immediately, a double bass makes its entrance, singing and weeping mingle, and the music takes us on a zany odyssey out of all control. What if the music stands were alive? What if we were to meet Claudio Monteverdi in person? And what if the deceased was not who we think he is? As you enter the Theatre, abandon all hope of keeping a straight face.
