Culture Fix
“Christine Bovill concocts a sublime evening of French pop classics in Paris: From Piaf to Pop, bringing a sense of warm charm, vocal prowess, and knowledgeable insight to the fold."
Details
Christine Bovill returns to the MAC with her new show, PIAF TO POP.
Christine Bovill’s award-winning shows PIAF and Paris established her reputation as one of Europe’s finest interpreters of French song.
In her new show, which was a complete sell-out at the Edinburgh Fringe 2022, Christine travels back the 60s and the Americanisation of French music: le yé-yé. A time of great cultural change in France - would the high art of chanson survive...?
This new show offers a sexy and delicious celebration of the Golden Age of French song and how it evolved during the Swinging Sixties.
Singing in both French and English she honours many stars including Edith Piaf, Jacques Brel, Serge Gainsbourg and Francoise Hardy.
