| Summary: | Among the adaptations of La Tentation de saint Antoine de Flaubert, the one made by Henri Rivière deserves special attention. « Féerie à grand spectacle en 2 actes et 40 tableaux », La Tentation for the shadow theatre (1887) is a composite show that blended the visual component with the music (original and arranged by Albert Tinchant and Georges Fragerolle) inside a fixed device where the evocative appearance of the paintings carried the viewer into a mystical universe. The music plays a central role because, in the absence of a text, it must be narrated, so that known tunes, drawn from operas, operettas and café-concert, often used with a parodic sense, alternate with original music composed by Tinchant and Fragerolle. La Tentation de Saint-Antoine is the first true shadow show at the Chat Noir, opening a multidisciplinary collaboration that occurs during the play’s genesis and also during the performance on stage. |
