Ten personalities in support of our opera house.
What do Edouard Vermeulen, Enea Scala, Hadja Lahbib and Gisèle Croës have in common? And what is their link with Portland, Stéphane Degout, Sally Matthews and Arne Quinze? Together with Max Jadot and Charles Peugeot, they are part of the MM AMBASSADORS project. A new initiative by La Monnaie that introduces artists, CEOs, singers and other prominent personalities who not only value the role of culture in our society, but who also actively defend it. They are people who appreciate La Monnaie's project and support it with the clout and kudos they have within their sector. We are proud to present these Ambassadors to the general public and, together with them, we are committed to giving culture even greater weight in the public debate. Because it is needed more than ever.
From 3 June to 22 September, La Monnaie and Muntpunt are transforming Rue Royale—the small street between their buildings—into a vibrant summer spot. A long table will serve as a welcoming meeting place where locals and passers-by can read, have lunch, play board games, or simply soak up the sun.
To mark Pride Week, La Monnaie decorates its façade in rainbow colours, to show its unwavering support for the LGBTQIA+ community.
A real feast for the eyes and ears in 2023, La Monnaie’s production of Tchaikovsky’s most intimate and celebrated opera, directed by Laurent Pelly and conducted by Alain Altinoglu, is now available on DVD, Blu-ray and streaming via Naxos.
