The January 1968 staging of Colombe at the Opéra de Tours represents a significant regional presentation of Jean-Michel Damase’s four-act comédie lyrique. The production was a collaborative presentation, hosted by the Opéra de Tours but performed by the visiting Troupe du Centre Lyrique Populaire de France. The staging was led by stage director Jacques Luccioni, with musical direction by Francis Balagna conducting the resident Orchestre du Grand Théâtre. The visual world was created by set designer Jean Maillot and costume designer Marianne Pade, bringing Jean Anouilh’s theatrical milieu to the operatic stage. This engagement highlights the lively touring and collaborative networks among French regional opera houses in the late 1960s, pairing a traveling vocal company with the host venue’s orchestra.
