An immersive staging in the service of History
Terres d'Histoire is more than just a historical performance. The audience follows a modern-day family who, through archaeological excavations, embarks on a journey into the past. Between discoveries, tensions, and emotions, spectators are taken through six major periods of history.
🎭 A contemporary family – This family serves as a bridge between different eras, adding a human touch to the narrative, along with a hint of humor.
🎭 Dynamic scenes – Duels, battles, political intrigues, and emotional moments unfold at a thrilling pace.
🎭 Authentic costumes and props – Carefully crafted to match each era, they enhance the show's authenticity and fully immerse the audience in the historical atmosphere.
In 2025, the staging evolves with innovative scenography and more fast-paced sequences, ensuring an even deeper immersion into history.
