Show, theatre, age 12 and up... At the end of 1949, there were rumours in Alpine circles of a second French expedition to the Himalayas.

In the spring of 1950, eight men set off from France, including Herzog - their expedition leader, Rébuffat, Couzy, Schatz, Lachenal and Terray. Success awaited them, but at what price... In this immersive show, you will be plunged into the heart of this story, on the slopes of Annapurna, between physical prowess, heroism and madness.
