Festival d'Automne, September 13 – January 12, 2014
This annual Paris autumn festival encompasses theatre, concerts, dance, cinema and exhibitions, taking pre-eminence in the cultural scene of the French capital. Although the Festival d´Automne with its avant-garde direction features mainly new works, recognized luminaries and classics also have a place in it. Among them is an enduring festival guest of many years' standing, French grandmaster and explorer of the field of dreams and secrets, Claude Régy. This year, Régy's latest show, La Barque le soir, centres around an old man whose impending death reveals things to him that no-one else knows about.
This year's festival pays particular homage to American avant-garde theatre director Robert Wilson, with three of his shows included in the programme. The Louvre Museum is also opening its doors to the director, naming this gesture Le Louvre invite Robert Wilson. From November 9 until February 17, Wilson's exhibition Living Rooms can be seen there.
