It's impossible not to know this French artist and heroine, especially now that she's being inducted into the Panthéon in 2021. But if her name is familiar to you, you may not know all the details of her life... It's time to catch up! At the end of the year, we're off to Bobino to discover Joséphine Baker, le musical, a new show that retraces the exceptional life of this illustrious woman.
The musical, created by Jean-Pierre Hadida(Anne le musical, Le Pirate et la poupée), dramatizes key moments in the life of the American-born French actress, singer and dancer. Several performances are scheduled for October 25, November 1, 8, 15, 22, December 6 and 13, 2023.
" Married at 13, from the black ghetto of Missouri, young Joséphine arrived in France and became the icon of the Paris of the Roaring Twenties. She joined the Resistance and came to symbolize the great universal woman recently celebrated at the Panthéon... " Joséphine Baker le musical" allows us to rediscover the dazzling artist with extraordinary talents as a dancer and singer, and the precursor of hip hop. The show also reveals the romantic life of this free and committed woman.
A troupe of eight artists brings this story to life, with singer and actress Nevedya in the lead role. From her impoverished beginnings in the Missouri ghetto to her acts of resistance against Nazi Germany, her arrival in France and her fight against racial segregation, we discover a strong, talented and courageous woman.
Dance numbers follow one another to original music. With its period costumes and rhythmic, festive staging, this show promises to be a real treat!
