English Summary:

Le Train Bleu:
Le Train Bleu (The Blue Train) is an operetta dansé that is part of the chic, frivolous society. The dramaturgy was written by Jean Cocteau, who, with his screenplay, provided a mocking view of the open-air and body cult and sport. The dances are inspired by sports such as golf, tennis, swimming and acrobatics.

Le Tricorne:
Le Tricorne (The Three-Cornered Hat) is Spanish - from start to finish. Picasso, born in Andalusia, designed sets, costumes and stage curtains that evoke an atmosphere in the style of a typical Spanish environment for the ballet. The story of a miller woman, her jealous husband and the senile magistrate who follows her is told with humor and warmth.
