“World premiere of Michael Jarrell's new creation live at the Palais Garnier, Paris on September 26th, 2018”
Titus and Berenice love each other; under the watchful eye of Antiochus, the hopeless lover, they try yet refuse to understand each other. Taking up the “majestic sadness” of these alexandrines, among the greatest verses in the French language, Michael Jarrell amplifies the power of words, making them a vehicle for spaces and identities that, from Rome to Jerusalem, are unceasingly questioned.

With the help of the mayor, she is gradually accepted by the parents and their children. But soon, her past catches up with her.
