The Show” arrives from Washington, where it was performed two nights in a row.
This is his seventh American tour and his second date in a year in this century-old 1,500-seat hall that has become a part of jazz legend, from Duke Ellington to Nina Simone.
This tribute to Piaf is the most performed French-speaking show in the world for ten years.
It exceeded 1.2 million spectators and 1,000 performances in 60 countries.
