A café-bar in Paris 1933. Wine flows, people chat, flirt and laugh while the music plays…but there’s a new face in the crowd.
A ravaged figure in faded finery and fake pearls, enters. The evening takes an unexpected turn, as ‘Madame Bijou’ former Queen of the Demi-Monde, unleashes a string of intimate, colourful memories. Music of Satie, Weill, Hollander, Bruant accompanies her stories and songs.
This sumptuous cabaret peeps into the private, sensual world of a riveting Parisienne d’un certain age.
Bijou will surprise you at every turn.
