Join us for our Starmania symphonique concert, presented in collaboration with the Ville de Boucherville as part of the Rendez-vous de la Mairie. The hit French musical Starmania needs no introduction. This iconic rock opera continues to capture the imagination with its dystopian narrative, whose major themes remain as timeless and relevant as ever, echoing many of today’s burning issues. Presented in a resplendent symphonic concert version, this classical reinterpretation offers a mesmerizing revival of the show’s famous and most emblematic tunes, enhancing and augmenting the visionary work of its creators, the legendary duo of Berger/Plamondon. Performed by some of the finest voices on the Quebec opera scene, this reinvented Starmania attests to its enduring appeal, delivering a profound, timeless, and memorable musical experience.
