Edith Piaf - “The Sparrow” flies into San Francisco for a “one night only” performance
Tumblr media
Even after 60 years since her passing in October of 1963, singer Edith Piaf continues to inspire and embody like few others. When people think of Paris, they usually imagine it with Piaf’s romantic “le vien rose,” lilting somewhere in the background.
Yet, it’s Piaf’s “Non, je ne regrette rien - No Regrets” that is her signature song, and fortunately San Francisco gets to see the spirit of this one-of-kind “sparrow” fly to resurgence once again with the talented Nathalie Lermitte on Nov. 6 at the Herbst Theater.
Hailed as “the most beautiful tribute to Edith Piaf’s career that has ever been produced,” as reported by Nite-Life Exchange. Lermitte has performed, “Piaf! The Show” more than 400 times in over 50 countries. Lermitte returns with this show to San Francisco - ‘the Paris of the Wild West’ for one night only.
While variations of Piaf’s life story has been featured before, “Piaf! The Show” was conceived and directed by Gil Marsalla.
Founding Directo Productions in 2001, Marsalla has been successfully producing musical and theatrical shows as well as large-scale events for the past 20 years. With touring his productions worldwide, his aim has been to feature emerging French artists and talents, such as Lermitte.
Although perhaps unknown to American audiences, Lermitte has been in the spotlight since she was 6 years old. At the age of 17 in 1983, she released her first album of songs. Marsalla’s production is not the first time Lermitte has embodied the role of Edith Piaf. In 1997 she was in the musical 'Piaf je t'aime.’
Tumblr media
Lermitte is perhaps the only actress/singer to perform as Piaf in not one but in three separate productions. in 2004 she took the lead in the show 'Piaf, une vie en rose et noir.’
With Marsalla’s vision and dedication, Directo Productions has successfully presented shows to sold-out venues in North & South America, Europe, Japan, China, and many other locations on five continents.
No doubt this celebration of the life and talent of Edith Piaf, is a one-of-a-kind live-theatre experience, “Piaf! The Show,” is a triumph! “Par excellence!”
PIAF! The Show Starring French Sensation Nathalie Lermitte
Conceived and Directed by Gil Marsalla will be on Monday, Nov. 6, 2023 - 7:30 pm - One Night Only! 
Herbst Theater - 401 Van Ness Avenue San Francisco, CA 94102
