In celebration of the show’s 2012 Bistro Award for Outstanding Tribute. “The Kid From Paris” celebrates the life and music of the legendary star of stage and screen, Yves Montand.
One of France most enduring stars, Yves Montand was both a major pioneer and a pillar of the 20th century tradition French chansons. In Brassard’s 80 minute tribute to the beloved Montand, he presents an eclectic array of French and English selections from Montand’s remarkable 50 year reign, deftly lacing songs, theatrical vignettes and a first-rate narrative of the beloved French icon’s life, loves, passions and politics. Co-written and directed by Brassard’s partner David Krueger, “The Kid from Paris” informs, moves, seduces and celebrates on many levels.
Accompanied by John Bowen on keyboards and accordion, Scott Ritchie on bass and Ben Cliness on percussions, Brassard holds center stage, performing in both the original French and in English, featuring loving new translations by Brassard and Krueger.
A native Québécois, Brassard has lived in New York since 1982, where he continues to build his career on stage, television and film. He has performed on numerous Manhattan stages with artists such as Steve Ross, Karen Kohler, KT Sullivan, Micheline van Hautem, Bob Cuccioli and Natascia Diaz to name a few. Jean was nominated for a MAC Award as Best Male Vocalist Debut and also garnered a 2012 AGGIE Award, both for “The Kid from Paris.” This tribute has also been performed in Canada, France and Belgium.
Reviews:
Linda Amiel Burns from TheaterMania.com, “Yves Montand was a first-rate performer and so is Brassard… after seeing this charismatic showman, you will become a fan”
Elizabeth Alfors of Cabaret Scenes, Jean “reflected the grace and charisma of the sexy Italian from Marseille.”
Jacqueline Chambord, Artistic Director of Alliance Française: “The narrative thread is excellent, Jean’s voice superb and without imitating him, his evoking of Montand is first rate.”
About Yves Montand:
Edith Piaf, Simone Signoret and America’s own Marilyn Monroe were all influential in Montand’s life, contributing to the life of a man who had far more than just melodious pipes and a highly charismatic presence to offer. Montand also had a significant impact in the realm of politics, both in his artistic choices and as a citizen. His trajectory was nothing short of spectacular. Always the flag-bearer of France’s working-class, Montand was a humble man of passionate opinion whose great prize and inspiration is authentic joie de vivre. Mr. Brassard rolls up his sleeves to measure himself against a boy from Marseille who held fast to the reins of his dreams to become Yves Montand.
