This month’s curation draws its inspiration from the exhibition Yves Saint Laurent en scène, echoing the couturier’s deep fascination with theatricality. Here, the stage becomes more than a place of performance. It transforms into a language of expression, where silhouettes, movement, and storytelling meet.

A Cinematic Ritual

Every Monday evening, the Auditorium becomes a destination for those who appreciate cinema beyond entertainment. The cine-club offers a refined selection of films centered on the world of performance, from musicals to intimate portrayals of life behind the stage.

Carefully selected works by directors such as Vincente Minnelli and Rob Marshall invite guests into a cinematic universe where choreography, costume, and emotion are elevated to art forms. The experience is designed as a ritual, quiet, immersive, and intentionally curated for a discerning audience.

Moments of Artistic Excellence

Beyond the screen, the program reveals a series of exclusive encounters that elevate the cultural calendar. A conversation dedicated to the collaboration between Yves Saint Laurent, Roland Petit, and Zizi Jeanmaire revisits one of the most refined intersections of fashion and performance, offering insight into a creative legacy that continues to influence contemporary aesthetics.

The presence of the Comédie-Française, with a poetic interpretation of The Snow Queen, introduces a rare theatrical moment, where classic literature is reimagined with subtlety and depth. Meanwhile, a charity concert by the Orchestre à cordes du Pays de Gex brings a refined musical atmosphere to the Auditorium, blending virtuosity with purpose.

A Cultural Signature in Marrakech

Set just moments from the iconic Jardin Majorelle, the experience extends beyond the Auditorium itself. It reflects a broader vision of Marrakech as a destination where culture is lived with intention. The museum continues to position itself as a meeting point between heritage and contemporary creation, attracting an audience that values both depth and aesthetics.

A final note of curiosity is introduced through a conference dedicated to the birds of Morocco, led by Dr. Raphaël Musseau. A quieter yet equally captivating moment, offering a different perspective on the relationship between nature, observation, and beauty.

An Experience to Be Felt

At the Auditorium Pierre Bergé, April is not simply a program. It is a sequence of moments designed to be experienced, where each evening carries its own rhythm, its own atmosphere, and its own sense of refinement.

For those in search of something beyond the expected, this is where Marrakech reveals a more intimate, cultural, and elevated side of itself.
