Nestled in the heart of the 10th arrondissement, Le Splendid, Paris's historic temple to the performing arts, will this winter welcome a new production adapted from the hit film "The Fisher King", from February 7 to June 23, 2024.

Based on Terry Gilliam 's 1991 film of the same name, "The Fisher King" is an emotionally-charged comedy-drama. Following an incident, main character Jack Lucas, a disgraced radio host, sets out on a quest for redemption on the streets of New York. He then meets Parry, a homeless ex-history teacher who claims to be a knight in search of the Holy Grail, plunging him into an extraordinary human adventure.
