A NEW VISION FOR THE GAÎTÉ LYRIQUE
On July 4, 2016, the Paris City Council accorded the Delegated Public
Service Contract for the Gaîté Lyrique to the Société d’Exploitation de
la Gaîté Lyrique (SEGL) [Gaîté Lyrique Operating Company]. The SEGL is
headed up by Marc Dondey, in partnership with Franck Bauchard - MuZ
connexions, Jean-Dominique Secondi - ARTER, and Monique Savoie - la
Société des arts technologiques de Montréal (SAT).
Their project offers a new vision for this space :
La Gaîté Lyrique – Paris
Digital muse for a Global City
Renovated by the City of Paris after being closed for more than 20
years, the iconic Gaîté Lyrique theater – founded in 1862 – reopened in
2011. After a first stage under the direction of Jérôme Delormas, the
Gaîté Lyrique will now continue its exploration of all forms of digital
creative expression and dialogue between the arts, sciences, and new
technologies.
With a pioneering approach, this team – starting in January 2017 – will
set out a new concept based on programming at the crossroads of artistic
creation and technical and social innovation. A bold, curious spirit
will pervade every floor and be active on all fronts.
A fresh, new roster of live performances and new music will be featured,
in a dialogue with visual arts, design, image in movement, and the most
rigorous forms of digital creation.
The Gaîté Lyrique pursues its construction as a socially-conscious,
joyous, forward-looking creative space. The Living Lab will be an open
platform for research, experimentation, and innovation. The Gaîté Nomade
will be a traveling version of the theater, bringing its vision to a
wider audience out in the field.
This project will be built along with the current Gaîté Lyrique team,
making full use of all the richness and quality of the partnerships and
audiences they’ve connected with. The Gaîté Lyrique will create even
more joint cultural happenings with its neighbors, citizens of Paris and
its greater region, with communities of artists, researchers, and
students, and with digital and creative enterprises.
Every link in the chain will be connected: training, research/creation,
production, and distribution/broadcasting. The Gaîté Lyrique will
energetically contribute to promoting Paris and its creative and
innovative potential, both in France and on the international level. The
international activities of the Gaîté Lyrique will be built around a
special Paris-Montréal network, with particular emphasis on the
Francophone connection.
