PARIS OPERA BALLET
Ballet in two acts by José Martinez – After the scenario by Jacques Prévert
Les Enfants du Paradis, created in 2008, is José Martinez's first major ballet for the Company. Through the memories of the mime Baptiste, the choreography brings to life a long-gone Paris, revealing the magical world of entertainment where the frontiers between reality and illusion are sometimes so tenuous.
