The third edition of the Uzès festival alone on stage will take place on May 7, 8, 9 and 10. The ticket office is already open. “If there is a third edition it is because the first two went very well. The objective is always for it to become an annual and long-term event”announces Patrick Timsit, artistic director of the festival.
“There are things that we will work on from year to year: exporting a little to Uzès outside of Ombrière, it could be the stud farms, the arenas, contacting more youth.
“ I am the spokesperson for an idea “
We're not being politically correct but I realized in the end that there are as many women as men. It made me happy because it was a parity that was not done to respect politeness. From edition to edition we will work further upstream because we realize that we are short of time. Now I am no longer the event, I am the spokesperson for an idea.”
