Manu Théron has set to music "La Cantilène de Sancta Maria Magdalena", the score of which was lost over two centuries ago. This composition, inspired by testimonies collected since the end of the 19th century, has enabled this archaic song to reconnect with popular devotion to Madalena, a timeless figure in Provence's Phocaean city, and to free itself from the uniformity of Catholic dogma that had once proscribed it.

The dance performance 'Pré́lude' is the story of the encounter between the music of Romain Dubois and the physicality of the dancers. Like a prelude to Compagnie Accrorap's move into the Southern Region, this piece is an invitation from choreographer Kader Attou to a dozen professional hip-hop dancers from the region to invest in his artistic universe. This "all-terrain" show, presented here for the first time, is designed to reach out to all audiences, taking hip-hop dance to places where it is least expected.

A timeless moment on a magnificent boat. A beautiful alliance of art and the sea. An ode to the Mediterranean.

It was a great experience, and the volunteers were very welcoming. My daughters really enjoyed traveling through time in virtual reality. It's a pity there isn't a helmet suitable for smaller children without a controller. My 6-year-old son was unable to enjoy it. Fortunately, the organizers were nice and kept an eye on him while I was able to enjoy the experience. Thanks for the experience, I hope it will be repeated.

Great cultural experience on this magnificent catamaran. Very well organized, with very friendly guides. I was delighted to rediscover the sounds of the Mediterranean. Thank you for this wonderful experience, which is within everyone's reach. Too bad for the colleagues who couldn't get a place... the price of fame.

The catamaran is wonderful, and the crew is helpful. An amazing experience, especially in the VR tunnel where you can see the light show. The immersive headphones provided English audio, so I felt included.
