Village and Heritage
Discover one of the Most Beautiful Villages in France and its places steeped in history.
When heritage comes to life…
At the crossroads of contemporary creation and the magic of the site, the Château des Baux-de-Provence presents a series of live, open-air performances against the backdrop of the vast Alpilles.
From September to October, the monument comes alive to the rhythm of voices, movement, and light. Theater, storytelling, dance, and performances: every Sunday, a unique experience between sky and stone, designed to surprise, move, and bring people together.
The Château opens its doors to live art in a stunning Indian summer setting. An open, vibrant, and thoroughly contemporary program that reinvents the Château as an open-air stage.
SHIFT takes us into our dreams, navigating between emotions and humorous situations, through our multiple “identities,” constantly shifting from one dimension to another, following a score that adapts to each landscape it crosses.
This performance is based on extensive research collecting nighttime dreams; today, more than 400 stories make up this landscape, where individual dreams are transformed into sensitive narratives and poetic material, opening up the permeability between worlds.
