Fort Antoine is set to host the cultural highlight of the summer in the Principality. The traditional venue for summer events, this year the site will be celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of its open-air theatre. To mark the occasion, the Prince’s Government is offering a series of free public performances, subject to available places (to book, please contact the Princess Grace Theatre ticket office*). 
As part of the fiftieth anniversary celebrations, the Department of Cultural Affairs is organising two distinct special programmes. The Principality’s iconic cultural institutions will be in the spotlight from 8 July to 7 August, while the traditional theatre season will resume from 18 August to 4 September 2020. 

 

"After a furious chase, Ripaille, a vagabond lover of fine food and literature, finds refuge in a caravan that is greatly to his liking. Having eaten nothing for several days, he is finally able to satisfy his hunger and that of the spectators, while casting an eye back over a string of childhood memories and gourmand anecdotes, from Rabelais to Colette via Prévert, Baudelaire, Hugo, Dumas, Brillat Savarin and a dozen other, equally distinguished authors.

Jérôme Pouly, Sociétaire of the Comédie Française, masterfully blends two of France's greatest contributions to humanity, namely gastronomy and literature.
This play will be performed outdoors, on the Place du Marché.
The performance will be followed by the opportunity to taste dishes from local producers.


Ticket office open. 
Free places, subject to availability.
Book at the Princess Grace Theatre (in person only), 12 avenue d’Ostende, from Monday to Friday, 12 pm to 6.30 pm.
