History on Stage: historical and interactive performances at Blandy-les-Tours Castle (77)

Baudoin reframes 13th-century justice, shattering myths about the supposed role of the medieval hangman. Audiences become the central players, improvising throughout a reimagined courthouse. Expect humor and warmth.

• Goupil et Face

Goupil ou Face is a wild, offbeat take on a scene from the famous medieval tale "Le Roman de Renart." It’s a clownish show on stage featuring two utterly zany sidekicks! Part acrobats, part jugglers, part singers and actors, these merry rogues fire off gags at breakneck speed and give the audience no chance to catch their breath. A hilariously entertaining show for the whole family!

• Douce France

Douce France drops you into the Renaissance through the stories of four emblematic figures in French history, from Saint Barthélemy to the assassination of Henri III. Follow the saga of Marguerite de Valois, Henri III, the Duke of Guise, and François d’Alençon through dance, song and swordplay.

• Mémoires d'oubliettes

This year, the Théâtre du Cristal offers an original creation, delivering a poignant, immersive experience at the heart of the castle’s history.
