The 2024 Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony was a celebration of all things French, embracing clichés like croissants and baguettes, but also challenging them with dramatic and comedic elements.
Thomas Jolly integrated plot, direction, comedy, drama, circus, theatrics, fashion, and music into the ceremony, offering a vibrant and exciting celebration of French identity.
The ceremony included a bold tribute to the French revolution with a musical metal-opera mash-up featuring beheaded Marie Antoinette figures singing the revolutionary song 'Ça ira' alongside a heavy-metal band.
