Folle Nuit à Paris

Summary of Folle Nuit à Paris :

It all starts with a bracelet. This bracelet takes us back to the 20s on the trail of Louis. This young man has invited himself to a very posh party where a certain Elsa is celebrating her birthday. After dancing together, Louis tries to escape but misfortune: he comes across three Corsican mobsters robbing the house. Neither one nor two, off he went for a frantic chase through Paris. With the help of a prostitute, he finds himself on the rooftops of Paris and then in Gertrude Stein's apartment to analyze a painting by Dali. After a visit to the police station, he finds the beautiful Elsa and Hemingway will help them escape. Together they will cross Paris up and down and will even pay a visit to Jean Cocteau and Django Reinhardt.
In one evening, here are the two lovebirds united for life. And they will be because they turn out to be none other than Louis Aragon and Elsa Triolet.

Folle Nuit à Paris takes up great jazz standards and offers, in music, in dance, a show full of characters and humor!
