Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris
Naughty, funny, dark, and romantic…this is a spectacular and intoxicating revue of the work of singer-songwriter Jacques Brel. Over half a century after they were written, Brel’s songs retain their edgy vibe. Terry Teachout of the Wall Street Journal says “Brel is as good as it gets!” If you’ve seen it before, you’ve never seen it like this. If you’ve never seen it, it’s about time!
