Jane: Les Balconnades singing group


Les Balconnades

Great afternoon on Sunday 10 April) at ZAT. This was the tenth ZAT - The ‘Zone Artistique Temporaire de Montpellier’ - which took place in Figuerolles.  Theatre, art, world music, dance and singing took place in various locations around the ‘quartier’.  


Les Balconnades are thirteen singers from Montpellier who ‘squat’ on the balconies of private homes and perform to the public in the street below.  We saw them in a delightful little road called rue Tour Gayraud where they occupied one long balcony on one side of the road and two on the other.  Not too sure why they wore swimming hats but very colourful and fun.  Good stuff!
