Dominique and Fatiguée are a pair of down-at-high-heels chanteuses, working at Chez Leplée, a dingy, dead-end cabaret in 1950 Paris

Henri Leplée, the miserly nightclub owner, insists his two songbirds croon only the songs of their archrival, the famous Edith Piaf, night after night

Bored with this routine, copycat existence, Dominique and Fatiguée, along with their faithful (nonspeaking) pianist Jean-Paul-Pierre, scheme to have their boss "conveniently detained" by the police so that they can finally perform their own material - if only for one night

The result is a charming musical sorbet about life, love and annoying accordion players

Unit set - runs about 90 mins

"An engaging, charming little gem. This uplifting, fun-loving, witty musical romp celebrates the French cabaret style made famous by Edith Piaf. With its terrific selection of wonderful, beautifully sung tunes" ~ Chicago Daily Southtown
