Is the 11am show the same as the 3pm one?

Yes. Each date has one episode, performed twice, so pick whichever time fits your day.

Do we need to have seen earlier episodes?

No. Each show stands on its own and covers a single artwork from start to finish.

Where is the auditorium?

Below the glass pyramid in the Cour Napoléon, in the museum's main entrance hall.

About

On stage, illustrator Laetitia Coryn draws a Louvre masterpiece live while storyteller Nicolas Lafitte tells its story and musician Axl-s plays along, with the audience in on the game. Each episode picks one painting, sculpture or object from the collection and digs into who made it and why. It's a funny, fast way into a museum that can feel overwhelming with kids.
