Un Bal Masqué
Nancy, France
October 2019
With striking red velvet drapes, lush costumes and numerous Venetian masks, the Opera National de Lorraine brought their A game to the stage of Verdi's 'Un Ballo in Maschera'. A theatre in the theatre? Yes, please!
Velours Verdi stage velvets have never been more suitable
Inspired by a scale model, the opera stage features a theatre-in-theatre set design defined by luxuriously draped velvet curtains.
No better place for over 750 running metres of royal Velours Verdi than in this baroque Verdi drama!
Sound-absorbing cotton velvets
Traditional cotton theatre velvets feature a directional pile and a striking matte finish. Our medium-weight and flame-retardant Velours Verdi is no different and even adds good sound-absorbing qualities to the list!
Curious about our different types of theatre velvets?
