Philosophical meeting at Nolinski Paris with François Alu

The Grand Salon at the Nolinski Paris is the setting for a monthly discussion between the philosopher Emmanuel Leclercq and a public figure.

We are delighted to invite you to a meeting with François Alu, “danseur étoile”, former member of the Paris Opera Ballet. At the end of the event, there will be a book signing for his book “Le Prix de l’étoile”, published by Robert Laffont in October 2024. In this autobiographical and poetic book, François Alu tells the secrets of the corridors of the Opéra Garnier, the lights of show nights, suffering, anger and discipline.

After twelve years at the Paris Opera, François Alu was appointed “danseur étoile” in 2022. A few months after his appointment, he announced his departure to pursue a personal artistic career.

Emmanuel Leclercq is a philosopher, essayist and lecturer. He teaches philosophy and the ethics of AI and is the founder of “Devenir pour Agir”.
