Christine Bovill: Piaf
Music
8.0 p.m.
Christine Bovill has established her reputation as one of Europe’s finest interpreters of French song with her smash-hit show 'Piaf'. At the heart of the often funny story is a young Glasgow girl, reluctant in school French until at 13 years of age, she heard ‘that song’.
Her journey is interwoven with Edith Piaf’s life and her incredible songs such as 'Non, Je ne Regrette Rien' and 'La Vie En Rose' and many more.
An award-winning songwriter in her own right, Bovill has toured throughout Europe and the Far East with her self-penned homage to the Little Sparrow, appearing on BBC Newsnight and on BBC Radio 4’s series, Soul Music. Her own compositions have appeared in film and TV. During her Edinburgh Fringe sell-out run at the Famous Speigeltent, she shared the stage with Charles Dumont, great friend of Piaf and, most famously, composer of ‘Non, Je ne Regrette Rien‘. Validation for her work didn’t come much higher
