Johnny Symphonic at Halle Tony-Garnier in Lyon 7
“Johnny Symphonic” is a performance in which a symphony orchestra and choir of 100 musicians play a rock repertoire, accompanied by a recording of Johnny Hallyday’s voice. A program of 23 songs, on four giant screens, often broadcasting unreleased images, under the direction of Evan Kassar, the conductor has been the innkeeper’s musical director for 15 years.
“Johnny’s problem was that he was good all around. He loved big orchestras and big productions, but when he sang a song alone with his guitar, it was a great song. The only thing was he was shy, he preferred to go on stage with a lot of musicians,” he explained to us. Ivan Cassar last September.
Tuesday April 4th at 8 pm at Halle Tony Garnier, Place Mérieux, Lyon 7. Prices 40/85 €

Aldebert on two stages in Halle in Lyon 7
Aldebert’s audience never tired of “Enfantillages”. This is his fourth version, and the singer from Besançon played it through hundreds of stops. Naive, pseudo-stories, mixing poetry with sharpness, frankness and information, just as songs exchange lovable melodies and loud rhythms … The singer returned to Lyon for two concerts on the same day, at Halle Tony-Garnier.
Saturday April 8th, at 4 pm and 8 pm at Halle Tony Garnier, Place Mérieux, Lyon 7. Prices from 25 to 49 euros.
Thiago Rodriguez at the Croix-Rousse Theatre
The new director of the Avignon Festival, Thiago Rodriguez, is certainly a must-see in our gathering stages. After TNP and Célestins earlier in the season, the Théâtre de la Croix-Rousse greeted him this week with his run of Antoine et Cléopâtre.
He completely rewrites the great tragedy that William Shakespeare had envisioned from the historical love story between the Queen of Egypt and the Roman general. Tiago Rodriguès presents an epic and contemporary poem, translated, danced and played by the young Portuguese actors, Sofia Dias and Vitor Rorez. Their lyrics intertwine with a sensuality that only the fervor of love can breathe. An elegant love poem.
From April 4 to 7 at the Théâtre de la Croix-Rousse. Joannes-Ambre place. Lions 4. 04 72 07 49 49 www.croix-rousse.com
