Prepare for champagne-fizzing romance, political mischief, and a hand fan with enough secrets to make any ambassador blush!
Opéra bouffe du Québec proudly presents Franz Lehár’s glittering operetta La Veuve Joyeuse (The Merry Widow) , running October 25 to November 2, 2025 at the Théâtre des Muses, Maison des arts de Laval.
Staged by the ever-witty Alain Zouvi and conducted by the charismatic Julien Patenaude, this French production promises a night of swoon-worthy waltzes and Viennese charm.
With 8 powerhouse soloists, a 40-voice choir, and a full OBQ orchestra, audiences will be swept into a whirlwind of laughter, luscious melodies, and very delicate diplomatic negotiations.

At the heart of this shimmering spectacle?
A dazzling widow, a desperate embassy, and a fan that may just reveal too much too soon…
Will love triumph, or will politics spoil the party? Only the blush-worthy waltzes know for sure.
