La Périchole

At the end of the 18th century, a ruthless viceroy and his lenient court rule over the Spanish conquest of Peru. Will the beautiful street singer Périchole take bribes from the King? Will she win her lover’s respect back? Will they manage to escape from their cage? The romantic century is fascinated by courtesans. Offenbach borrows one from Mérimée, who himself drew his inspiration from Peruvian history. The political onslaught turns into mockery, while the title role remarkably depicts a woman and the inalienable freedom of arts. Stéphanie d’Oustrac embodies tipsy Périchole in Valérie Lesort’s colourful and whimsical stage direction.
