ABOUT THE PIECE

During her lifetime, she was called "the soul of the French nation". After her death, she became an icon of French music. Songs from her repertoire are still popular all over the world. The legendary singer, who began her career on the sidewalks of Paris, answered the question about the meaning of her life as follows: "Love, what else?".

The play by Nina Mazur was created by graduates of the St. Petersburg Theater Academy.
