Performance Added for International Musical Hit PIAF! THE SHOW

Following its sold-out one-night-only performance at Carnegie Hall last year, the French Institute Alliance Française (FIAF), New York's premiere French cultural center, joins forces with Gil Marsalla and Directo Productions to present the international musical hit PIAF! THE SHOW from Wednesday through Saturday, April 18-21-with a new Saturday performance added due to high demand!-at 7:30pm at FIAF's Florence Gould Hall, 55 East 59th Street, between Madison & Park.

Inspired by the Oscar-winning movie La Vie en Rose, PIAF! THE SHOW is a musical celebration of the life and music of the legendary French chanteuse. Conceived and directed by the Nice-based theatrical maverick Gil Marsalla, this special concert stars the internationally acclaimed Anne Carrere, a young French performer hailed as "Edith Piaf's legitimate musical heiress."

In two 45-minute acts, the show narrates the rags-to-riches story of the Parisian singer's career through her unforgettable songs, complemented by a visual tapestry of previously unreleased photographs and images of famous locations of the Edith Piaf era.

PIAF! THE SHOW premiered in 2015 as a tribute to "The sparrow of Montmartre" on the centennial of her birthday. With over half a million tickets sold in more than 30 countries and rave reviews worldwide, this is a rare chance to see the show in the New York!
