Le Mystère de La Pérouse
Le Mystère de La Pérouse is an immersive show: you do not watch from a grandstand, but walk through the scenery yourself. You go aboard with the explorer La Pérouse, for a scientific expedition commissioned by King Louis XVI.
The story
It is 1785. You set sail from the port of Brest, heading for uncharted waters. On board you witness the great discoveries, from Cape Horn to Alaska and finally Vanikoro. You experience, from the inside, the voyage of an expedition that never returned.
The experience
You walk through the cabins, see the animals and plants the scientists on board collected and look through the portholes at Cape Horn. You feel the cold of Alaska and the storm that is brewing. Machines make the ship move; 3D video mapping and more than 170 sound recordings complete the experience. In 2018 the show won the award for best show in Europe.
