Lakmé at Place des Arts - Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier

A sparkling production, bathed in the colours of Bollywood, which played to capacity crowds in 2007. A richly orchestrated score, overflowing with melodies—from the magical languor of the Flower Duet to the dizzying Bell Song. A story of forbidden passion that mixes love and religion… A heroine who is both fragile and unshakeable, a little sister to Carmen and Manon.
SYNOPSIS

Lakmé falls in love with Gérald, a British officer. He wavers between duty and love, while she is torn between her lover and her father, a religious fanatic. Only poison can break the stalemate.
