This musical took place between 2005-2007 and it's absolutely worthy to see it! Not only the plot is interesting (its context is, as the title says, the life of Louis XIV), but the actors, actresses, dancers, coreographies, songs,clothes,...everything is amazing here!.....
It was produced by Albert Cohen and Kamel Ouali, and the starrings were Emmnuel Moire (Le Roi Soleil), Anne Laure Girbal,Christophe Maé, Cathialine Andria, Merwan Rim, Victoria Petrosillo, and Lysa Ansaldi.
All of them can sing, and they do it absolutely well! But, in addition, they're helped by beautiful lyrics and melodies, that make you enjoy what you're listening, even when it's sung in a language you don't know....
Here there are some songs of the play, which are my favourites:
Être a la hauteur (spanish subtitles):
Mon Essentiel
Also, many of those actors and actresses are now well-known singers in France, and are having a succesful career there...it'd be awesome, the rest of the world would know a little be more about them...cause they're completly enjoyable!....and their music is pretty good!
So, go to youtube, search "Le Roi Soleil" and you'll find the play completly, and even with spanish subtitles.
Au Revoir!
I use this musical to teach Classicism in my French III classes. They LOVE it!
