Come join us for this fun, frothy, festive, touching yet funny one-woman Cabaret Theatre show. Sultry, silky French chansons and lavish costumes evoke the bygone spirits of the most wonderful artistes of the Music Hall stages of Paris from 1900 to 1960 — Erik Satie, Colette, Kiki, Maurice Chevalier, Marlene Dietrich, Mistinguett, and of course, Edith Piaf.
Their chansons tell the tale of the intimate stories of those performers who sashayed around the vibrant heart of Parisian nightlife during the first half of the 20th century. Onstage costume changes delight, amuse and surprise the audience while marking the passage of time. The cleverly crafted script is in English with smatterings of French throughout. Piano Accompaniment: Barbara Twigg. Accordionist: Peter DiGiovanni.
