(translated: Les Trois Mousquetaires: Un Pour Tous, Tous Pour Un!) is a French musical show, directed by René Richard Cyr and Dominic Champagne and produced by Nicole and Gilbert Coullier, Roberto Ciurleo, Eléonore de Galard and NRJ Group, which began its performances on September 29, 2016, at the Palais des Sports in Paris and continue on tour throughout France from February 2017.
Plot
[edit]April 1625, the young and brave d'Artagnan leaves his native Gascony to try to join the close guard of King Louis XIII and make his fortune in Paris. Upon his arrival in the capital, d'Artagnan reluctantly challenges the musketeers Athos, Porthos, and Aramis to a duel. He hits Athos' injured shoulder, steps on Porthos' cape and inadvertently compromises Aramis with a handkerchief with the wrong initials.
With Richelieu banning duels, d'Artagnan and the musketeers find themselves outside the law; the guards take advantage of this to try to avenge an old rivalry between them and the three gentlemen. But against all odds, d'Artagnan allies himself with the musketeers and from this victorious fight an unwavering friendship is born.
At Richelieu's suggestion, Louis XIII forces the Queen to wear the twelve diamond studs offered by the King to the next court ball. However, the Machiavellian Richelieu knows that the Queen has given the precious jewelry as a token of love to the Duke of Buckingham, with whom she is having a secret affair.
With the help of the Queen's faithful seamstress, Constance, the quartet saves the Queen from the underhanded maneuvers of Richelieu and his agent, the perfidious Milady de Winter, by going to London to recover the jewelry.
At the end of a journey strewn with pitfalls, d'Artagnan and his three friends manage to deliver the ferrets to the Queen in time. Promoted to lieutenant, d'Artagnan and the three musketeers succeed in preserving the honor of the kingdom, carried by their only credo: "One for all, all for one! "
