Like Hugues Aufray who sings this Sunday at the Olympia (Paris), octogenarians and even ninety-year-olds continue to triumph on stage.


It's not just Hugues Aufray who still sings despite his advanced age, like this Sunday at the Olympia. Pierre Perret, 89 years old, Enrico Macias, 85 years old, Henri Dès, 83 years old, do the same. The elders give voice in concert but also in the theatre. Judith Magre is 97 years old and seems to be the oldest actress. Every Monday, she reads on the stage of the Poche Montparnasse three short stories from "S'abandon à vivre", a collection by Sylvain Tesson. A nice title for a show in which the artist with the warm voice transports, through the words of the author, the spectators from Saint-Germain-des-Prés to Siberia, via the Sahara. Off-set, she is bored and wanted to return quickly to Le Poche, which she is particularly fond of and whose audience reciprocates it. In view of its success, it was again extended until the end of March.

What's next after this ad

At 89 years old, 90 this summer, the great Pierre Richard returns to the stage with "Je suis là, mais je ne suis pas là", a new show that he commits with his long-time colleague Christophe Duthuron and in which he will try to definitively wring the neck of his reputation as a distracted. "Are you as distracted in life as you are in your movies?" is the most common question he is asked after "How are you?" The actor will play this one-man show until the end of March during a tour he has just launched this Saturday in Louvres, in the Val-d'Oise. He was in Vitry-le-François (Marne) on Sunday, will be in Corsica on Wednesday before spending two days, Friday and Saturday, in Antibes (Alpes-Maritimes).
