FIAF to Present THE NIGHT WILL BE CALM, 2/18

The French Institute Alliance Française (FIAF), New York's premiere French cultural center, will present the US premiere of The Night Will be Calm (La nuit sera calme), the celebrated performance of Romain Gary's eponymous autobiographical work by acclaimed French actor Jacques Gamblin, on Wednesday, February 18 at FIAF's Florence Gould Hall.

The unstoppable force behind six pseudonyms, dozens of bestselling books, and two Prix Goncourt-winning novels was also a man who once challenged Clint Eastwood to a fistfight. This one-night-only theater event offers a glimpse into Gary's incredible life, directed and performed by three-time César nominee and winner of the Berlin Film Festival's Silver Bear, Jacques Gamblin (Hippocrate).

In 1976, Romain Gary published The Night Will Be Calm, a fictitious conversation between the author himself and François Bondy, a childhood friend. In Gary's own words, Gamblin takes on some of the author's many identities-from French war pilot and diplomat, to half of a jet-setting celebrity couple, to literary renegade.

Duration of the show is 75 minutes without intermission. In French with English supertitles.
