Moby Dick at the Fortress (2024)

For the 2024 edition, Le Manteau d'Arlequin chose to adapt Herman Melville's mythical novel, "Moby Dick". With 40 actors and musicians on stage, the troupe brought to life the adventure of Captain Ahab and his crew in pursuit of the white whale, in the grandiose setting of the Cluis-Dessous fortress.

Performances took place every evening from July 18th to 28th at 10 PM, after dinner at the inn starting at 7 PM. This sound and light show transported the 285 spectators of each performance into an epic and poetic maritime journey.
