Summer Season
Each summer, the theatrical team based at
La Maison Maria Casarès in Alloue open the house and grounds to visitors with a variety of projects
This year an ambitious programme of events is scheduled for each Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday of their summer season running from
22nd July until 22nd August. Although presented in French, most of the performances should be accessible even if your language skills are not that great.
15:00-19:00 Gardens
The gardens are free to visit in the afternoon during the season
Over 800 letters, often intimate, between the couple were published a couple of years ago. A continuous selection of readings from these letters illuminates Maria Casarès' home where she retreated after the death of Albert Camus in a tragic road accident.
