Britain's What's On Event Guide
Piaf
Be drawn into the extraordinary world of Édith Piaf, the French chanteuse who captivated the world with her unquestionable talent. Pam Gems’ play, starring Audrey Brisson who returns to the Watermill after her critically acclaimed performance in Amélie, charts The Little Sparrow’s dramatic rise from the squalor of the streets of Paris to the glamour of international stardom.
Piaf intertwines the great loves, losses and questionable decisions of this complex and fragile star with her raw, spellbinding songs, performed live by an ensemble cast of actor-musicians.
Still revered as an icon, decades after her untimely death, be enchanted by this fascinating talent who lived a life of no regrets.
