Nevers is a small town in the center of France, located about 200 km south of Paris in the Loire Valley, in the Departement Nivernais. The festival took place in the Theatre Municipal, an 18th century roccocco theatre with boxes and circles. There have been just 285 tickets (300 FF for two days) which were sold out more than three months before the festival...
