Powdered wigs and corsets are going to be in short supply ... because the Sun King is back in action in 2025! Twenty years after its very first performance, Kamel Ouali and Dove Attia's cult musical makes a comeback worthy of Versailles. Fan presales open Tuesday November 12 at 12pm, and general ticketing opens Friday November 15 at 10am!

Hear ye, hear ye, ladies and gentlemen - Le Roi Soleil is ready to reclaim his throne in 2025 at the Dôme de Paris! Twenty years after its premiere, Kamel Ouali and Dove Attia's cult musical, which lit up the stages of the 2000s, will make its grand return to Paris from December 4, 2025, and then across France in 2026. Décibels Productions teased the announcement on October 21 via an Instagram video showing a poster unveiled on the gates of the Château de Versailles, confirming the long-awaited comeback: "20 years later, he returns to the court... The Sun King returns in 2025."

Launched at the Palais des Sports, this show retracing the loves and ambitions of Louis XIV captivated over 1.6 million spectators across 380 performances in France, Switzerland and Belgium, according to Chéri FM. The hits Être à la hauteur and Je fais de toi mon essentiel made their mark, revealing the talents ofEmmanuel Moire (Louis XIV) and Christophe Maé (Philippe de France).

While details on location and casting remain under wraps, one thing is certain: the original duo, Kamel Ouali directing and Dove Attia producing, are on board! Fans will have to wait for more info, with a mysterious "More information soon" by way of promise.

This comeback is in line with the great revivals, following in the footsteps of The Ten Commandments and Notre-Dame de Paris, other monuments of French musical comedy.
