A rare production of the Parisian musical comedy that became the toast of London and New York! Billy Wilder's hit movie version starred Shirley MacLaine as Irma, a carefree Montmartre streetwalker whose life is turned upside down when she falls in love with a law student.
Marguerite Monnot's atomospheric and tuneful score includes the hits "Our Language of Love" and "Dis-Donc," as well as 'Valse Milieu," "From a Prison Cell," and "Christmas Child."
Opening Night reception provided by L'Olivier Restaurant.
