  • John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Terrace Theater 2700 F Street Northwest Washington, DC, 20566 United States (map)

Performances: May 3 & 4 @7:30pm

Mouret’s spirited opéra-ballet, Les Fêtes de Thalie, looks at love through the eyes of three women in these delightful vignettes: La Fille (The Girl), La Veuve Coquette (The Coquettish Widow) and La Femme (The Wife). Conducted by Christophe Rousset and directed by Catherine Turocy, these witty tales, in which women get the better of the men in their lives, feature a young and diverse cast of American singers and dancers.
