This week, we are treating ourselves to a night at the ballet as we take in the very first visually recorded physical interval act debuting at the 1961 Eurovision Song Contest! Get your bow-ties and ball gowns ready as we settle in for a performance by France’s top ballet dancer and a mysterious woman!

Rencontres à Cannes is a story interpreted by Max Bozzoni, a star of the l’Opera de Paris and Tessa Beaumont, a woman whose story is shrouded with mystery! Join us as we strive to understand the art form that is Ballet, travelling through time as we witness its development from upper-class spectacle to cultural phenomenon!
