Opera on the Road: A Mobile Opera Truck for All
For the 2024-2025 season, the Opéra de Lyon is redefining cultural accessibility with the launch of its Mobile Opera Truck, a traveling project reminiscent of the film Cinema Paradiso. In the spirit of a time when cinema and performances brought culture to remote and underserved audiences, this modern stage on wheels breaks down geographic and social barriers.
Showcasing the opera The Blood of the Glacier, specially commissioned for the initiative, the project unites writer Lucie Vérot Solaure, composer Claire-Mélanie Sinnhuber, and director Angélique Clairand. After its December 2024 premiere at the Théâtre du Point du Jour in Lyon, the opera will begin a multi-week tour across the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region in early 2025, offering a unique artistic experience to communities far from major cultural hubs.

By bringing opera to places off the beaten path, the Lyon Opera Truck reaffirms the notion that art belongs to everyone. This bold initiative brings audiences closer to opera while reviving the timeless ideal of a traveling, inclusive culture.
