A seminal work of comic opera, La Caravane du Caire triumphed when it was created in 1783, and continued to resonate in the ranks of the Napoleonic army with the aria “La Victoire est à nous”. Like a large number of late 18th century operas, Grétry's colorful play fell into oblivion due to the enormous resources required to perform it.
Its creation at the Opéra de Tours will allow us to reread this oriental work, in which the brave Saint-Phar tries to free his wife Zélime from a slave trader who is trying to sell her to the Pasha. Incredible situations and ballets will honor the exceptional cast gathered in Tours, carried away through this outdated Orient by Stéphanie-Marie Degand.
