PRESS RELEASE
Fathom Entertainment, the leading specialty distributor of content to theatrical partners worldwide, and Pathé Live, a pioneer in global distribution of event cinema, announced today the upcoming release of the acclaimed international production Bernadette of Lourdes, The Musical in U.S. theatres on September 28 and 29.
Commemorating the 100th anniversary of St. Bernadette of Lourdes’ beatification, this internationally acclaimed stage-to-screen musical illuminates the extraordinary resilience and spiritual journey of the 19th-century French visionary. Directed by renowned Canadian stage director Serge Denoncourt, the much-anticipated pro shot was first performed as a musical theater event in Lourdes, France, in 2019. The original French show is coming exclusively to theatres with English and Spanish subtitles (Spanish subtitles subject to availability at participating theatres).
Based on historical records from interrogations and investigations by police, district attorneys, and church authorities, Bernadette of Lourdes, The Musical focuses on how Bernadette (portrayed by French singer Eyma), the poorest and least educated girl in town, bravely faced her skeptics with character, candor, honesty and a good sense of humor.
Award-winning actor Kelsey Grammer serves as co-producer for the upcoming U.S. stage tour that will follow Fathom’s U.S. theatrical release. Grammer is deeply moved by this story, “You hear a lot about the Divine Feminine. Bernadette is. She is the embodiment of courage in the face of condemnation. She is unshakable, innocent, impeccable, beautiful. I am proud to have been called to help tell her story. There are many who know her; there are many more now who will.”

“I became fascinated with Saint Bernadette’s story and the interrogation in 1858,” said Serge Denocourt, director of Bernadette of Lourdes, The Musical, “When approached to direct this production, I reluctantly accepted a plane ticket to experience Lourdes for myself. What happened was remarkable, because I was enamored with the details of Bernadette’s young life, her witness and what she endured and her conviction. As a nonbeliever, I viewed Bernadette’s story in a dramatic way for the general public. I am a storyteller and as Bernadette herself said ‘my job is to inform not to convince.”
“Fathom Entertainment is pleased to bring Bernadette of Lourdes, The Musical – a deeply inspiring musical experience – to our U.S. audiences,” said Ray Nutt, Chief Executive Officer of Fathom Entertainment. “Fathom has cultivated a passionate fanbase in the performing arts and faith communities, and we are uniquely positioned to showcase this beautiful and timeless story.”
The U.S. theatrical release of Bernadette of Lourdes, The Musical by Fathom Entertainment is a precursor to the 2026 U.S. stage tour (“Light On Stage Studios Presents Bernadette, The Musical 2026 US Tour“). This provocative and artistic depiction of the faith and perseverance of one of the greatest saints of Catholicism and one of the most popular and revered Marian apparitions and pilgrimage destinations in the world has gripped many diverse audiences, including the filmmakers.
Bernadette,The Musical toured internationally, garnering attention throughout Europe, including the Vatican and at the U.S. Eucharistic Congress in 2024. In France, more than 400,000 spectators saw the original on-stage show, and the theatrical release generated $600K at the box office with only two screenings. In Italy, the on-stage production was elected the official show of the Year of Jubilee 2025. The production has been hailed as “triumphant” and a way to rediscover the inspiring story of Bernadette of Soubirous.
