JOHN CUFF makes a musical tribute to Yves Montand, one of the most innovative stars and one of the pillars of French music and his show: The Kid from Paris ¨. With three performances at the Triad Theater, the artist marks the 20th anniversary of the death of Yves Montand, who would have celebrated his 90th birthday.

 

Interpreting an eclectic selection of songs in French and English, belonging to the 50 years repertoire of Yves Montand, the tribute solo Brassard skillfully blends songs, vignettes and a political story about the life quality, loves, passionsand political commitments of the beloved French icon.

 

Co-written with David Krueger, partner Brassard, ¨ The Kid from Paris · in turn will inform you, move you and seduce you and it will celebrate Montand’s life at different levels. Krueger runs the show while Brassard holds the central place.
Daily through December 7.
