Weekend Events on the French Riviera in Menton
Poetic Show “Au fil de l’eau” presented by Patrick Megevand
This is a poetic show that aims to breathe new life into about twenty poems, all revolving around a common theme: water.
Apollinaire, Baudelaire, Éluard, Prévert, Verlaine, and many others have celebrated water in all its forms. Is it surprising?
Water is life, but it is also pleasure, dreams, sensuality, movement, color, and travel. And also poetry.
“Au fil de l’eau” is water in words, with the added pleasure and emotion of sharing a common passion and a beautiful friendship.
