MASTRODONATO TONI

Teaching the ballet at the Opéra Grand Avignon, directed by Martin Harriague, was a beautiful experience. Surrounded by a team of kind, talented, and inspiring creatives.

We saw a matinee opera here. 2.5 hours and it was all in Russian, with French and English subtitles. OMG. I was shocked that I really really liked it. In any case, if you're visiting, go see something here. Anything. Seats are not expensive. If you need to read English subs however, pass on the 3rd tier seats at the back, as you have to duck to see the subtitle screen, which is above the stage's upper frame. It's an 850 person theater; so not big. Any seats in the middle section are pretty good. Seats on the sides are also hard to see the stage.

The Opéra d'Avignon is an opera house located in Avignon, France that has been in operation for almost two centuries. The initial opera house was constructed in 1824–1825, and opened with its inaugural performance on 30 October 1825. The original opera house was destroyed in a fire on 26 January 1846. Lovely place to visit.

This is an opera house located in the main square in Avignon. Originally constructed in 1824, it has been operating for almost two centuries. Well-constructed and impressive building. In the main square are buskers, street performers, restaurants, cafes shops and other beautiful buildings. Worth a visit.

Small, cosy and elegant old-school opera house in Italian style. It displays good programmes and shows, with excellent acoustic and visual conditions. There are foyers with bars, but the champagne was just regular and the red wine was served cold, which is bizarre, at least in winter time. The toilets are tiny (I really mean it) and queues to access them easily form. At least there was some inspired old ladies singing, in an improvised and witty fashion in the corridors, to cheer up those waiting in line.

I got poisoned by beef tartare, I have a fever and feel sick for the second day
