Rating: PG - Parental Guidance

A glittering evening ‘Under the Paris Sky’ is filled with French language songs, from Piaf to the contemporary works of Zaz, interwoven with hilarious fun. You’ll be swept away by the beauty of the music and die laughing at the comical characters ... and you don't even need to speak French! Georgia Darcy has been described by various reviewers as a “joy to watch, mesmerising” a “Powerhouse” and “Glittering”. Specialist French-content reviewer, Matilda Marseillaise says: "Georgia is ethereal in 'Under the Paris Sky'. You cannot ignore her stage presence. Our eyes were fixed on her throughout the show. We could have listened to her for hours…. Her voice is hypnotizing, the show resplendent… she sings Piaf in such a way that we could think we were listening to Piaf herself." Georgia’s love of the French language is obvious as she shares it with guests, taking us on a poetic journey through the story and metaphor of the songs before singing in French, thus we can follow whilst enjoying the beauty of the “language of love” sung with passion and eloquence. There is plenty of comedy as Cecile (played by Georgia’s wife, Louise Lawson) returns to create mischief and mayhem as Georgia’s French maid (who does no cleaning). Maestro Simon Walters has flown over from Melbourne to accompany Georgia for this Cabaret Fringe 2022 – his playing is breathtaking. “A truly wonderful show” – come with us to Paris for a night to remember.

Come see the show - we will be scintillating together
