Péniche Opéra


La Péniche Opéra is a small French opera company based on a barge. When in Paris it is moored opposite No.46, quai de Loire, Paris 19e.

It was founded by director Mireille Larroche, Ivan Matiakh, Béatrice Cramoix and Pierre Danais in 1982, and became recognised, and subsidised as a Compagnie Lyrique Nationale in 1998. The "barge opera" was in residence at the Paris Opéra Comique from 1998 to 2007 but has travelled by canal to be associated artist of the Opéra de Toulon from 2003 to 2007.
