Would you like to adventure into space without all the technical hassle?

If the answer to that question is yes, then hurry along to the Théâtre Silvia Monfort and make yourself comfortable in one of the theatre's comfy seats to watch 16 Levers de soleil (16 Sunrises), a sweeping musical space odyssey.

If the answer is no, hurry along anyway, because with 16 Levers de soleil, you're about to embark on an extraordinary journey through space and time in an immersive musical show composed by saxophonist Guillaume Perret.

The show is a tribute to Thomas Pesquet, the French astronaut who spent six months on board the International Space Station (ISS). Inspired by his unique experience, Guillaume Perret has composed haunting melodies to capture the beauty and solitude of space.

On stage, Guillaume Perret, accompanied by talented musicians, plays his original composition on his saxophone. Immersive video projections transport the audience into the world of Thomas Pesquet, bringing to life the 16 daily sunrises he observed from the ISS.

16 Levers de soleil is more than just a concert. It's a poetic reflection on life, the universe and our place in the cosmos. Guillaume Perret's music invites us to contemplate the fragile beauty of the Earth and to wonder about our astronomical future.
