    About this ebook

    Edith Piaf is one of the more lasting myths of the French and world music. Born literally in the street, she developed a carree as singer and composer that took her to be a world figure of excepcional relevance. This show is a recreation of the historic recitals of the Olympia intercut with stories and anecdotes of her life that reflect her deep love for the music, for the live and for the men. She lived her life always on the limits, defying everything and risking everything. She lived as she sang: forcing her little body to the extreme of her posibilities. And she didn’t regret

      No, no regrets - Lázaro Droznes

      NO, NO REGRETS

      Life and songs of Edith Piaf

      Edith Piaf appears on stage like apologizing and knitting red colored clothing. During the play she leaves and takes the knitting needles, puts in order the stamen balls and uses those objects to remark aspects of her stories. She's a tiny woman with a black dress, short hair who walks hesitant and surprises with the volume of her voice when she sings.

      EDITH PIAF

      I came to the world in the street below a streetlight in front of the 72 Belleville Street, at the working-class neighborhood of Mennilmontant, like a wild fruit in the streets of Paris. In that place there is now a marble plate that reminds the event. My mother was going hurried to the Tenon Hospital, but I arrived to the world before her to the hospital. In that moment two cops that were patrolling helped my mother like midwives. One of them put his coat on the floor. The other one helped me to get out. That way my life began... but my mother was more interested in singing that in raising me. So she gave me to her mother, my grandmother, who was alcoholic like her daughter. Instead of giving me milk in the bottle she gave me wine, to sleep without complaining. Such was my abandonment state that my father, before to go to the war, took me to the house where his mother lived, who has a Madame in a house of ill repute at Barnay, on the Normandy. The girls of the establishment channeled all their maternal instincts over me. All of them care about me and they pampered me. Against all that could seem, was the happiest time of my life
