JEAN BRASSARD provides a musical tribute to YVES MONTAND - one of France's most pioneering stars and pillar of French chansons, in 'The Kid From Paris'. With three performances at the Triad Theater, the artist marks the 20th anniversary of Yves Montand's passing and what would have been his 90th birthday. Presenting eclectic French and English selections from Montand’s 50 year repertoire, Brassard’s solo tribute deftly laces songs, theatrical vignettes and a first rate narrative of the beloved French icon’s life, loves, passions and politics. Co-written with Brassard’s partner David Krueger, 'The Kid From Paris'. informs, moves, seduces and celebrates on many levels. Krueger directs and Brassard holds center stage.
