On April 30, 2015, His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco visited Cirque Éloize in Montreal, Canada, to view their new show entitled, Monaco ou les amants du Rocher. The show, directed by Ms. Krista Monson, features “… thirty acrobats and dancers in a magnificent set reflecting the country’s [Monaco] most beautiful symbols…” according to a press release.
During last Thursday’s visit the sovereign prince noted that he was very happy with the show in which he stated:
“…’From the start, I was attracted to the idea of conveying the history and values of the Principality as a modern-day romantic tale. Monaco ou les amants du Rocher is the epic of François who arrives in the country and is transformed after meeting the lovely Agnes. It’s an expansive love story that unfolds with Monaco as its backdrop and its inspiration…”
