A thematic guided tour on 'Henry VIII' for the Brussels Museums Nocturnes
La Monnaie is participating in the Brussels Museums Nocturnes! Come to our Theatre on 20 April for a guided tour and learn all about our new production Henry VIII and its main character.
Each year, the Brussels Museums Nocturnes are a definite point on the agenda of culture lovers. From 13 April to 18 May, you can discover exhibitions and collections every Thursday from 5pm to 10pm at 37 unique locations in our capital. The programme includes guided tours, artistic workshops and unique behind-the-scenes visits - all at affordable prices.
La Monnaie is also participating in this new edition and welcomes you on Thursday 20 April for a unique visit to our theatre. Come and discover, in avant-premiere, our thematic guided tour dedicated to Camille Saint-Saëns' Henry VIII. Through photographs, historical documents, set and costume models, videos and excerpts from the original manuscript of the score, you will get to the heart of this fascinating work and discover the different stages in the realisation of our new production.
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.
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.
