As part of a world tour honoring the 60th year since Edith Piaf’s sudden passing at a young age, Piaf! The Show, a musical celebration of the life and music of the legendary French chanteuse, returns to the Barclay. Directed by theatrical maverick Gil Marsalla, and starring the stunning French songstress, Nathalie Lhermitte, in the title role, Piaf! The Show is inspired by the Academy Award-winning film La Vie En Rose and Marion Cotillard’s moving portrayal of Edith. In two 45-minutes acts, Lhermitte, who is acclaimed as “Edith Piaf’s legitimate musical heiress,” dramatically and emotionally tells the rags-to-riches story of Piaf’s career through unforgettable songs, a commanding stage presence, and an evocative visual tapestry created by images of Paris in the 1920s, 30s and 40s.
