Mousquetaire de Richelieu
Mousquetaire de Richelieu is a musketeer adventure set in the seventeenth century. You see sword fights, poetic verse, flamenco and equestrian skills. The show lasts 32 minutes and is indoors.
The theatre
The show takes place in the Grand Carrousel, a gigantic theatre with, according to the park, the largest stage curtain in the world. It combines the charm of a seventeenth-century theatre with the scale of Puy du Fou. Water and lighting effects, large moving sets and historical costumes take you back to the time of Cardinal Richelieu.
The experience
The pace is high: sword fights alternate with flamenco dancing and stunts on horseback. The stage keeps changing shape, with water on the floor and large sets that shift around. The moment when three horses gallop freely across the stage is the result of a lot of work by their carers and their bond with the animals.
