Théâtre des Arcades - ZZAJ, the burlesque history of jazz

Cultural Entertainment/recreation

L'histoire du Jazz, 3 October at 8.30pm at the Théâtre des Arcades in Buc! Two passionate jazz fans attempt to save their raison d'être: jazz!

A musical theatre show that celebrates failure through a burlesque journey through the history of jazz... with trumpet, drums, guitar, vocals... and loops!
In an old-fashioned, decrepit radio studio in the 60s, two presenters put on a musical programme: ‘Journey to the Land of...’. On this particular day, the focus is on jazz. But their boss has an unpleasant surprise in store for them: the audience is present for the filming, and will decide whether or not the programme should go ahead. The two enthusiasts will try at all costs to save the show that is their whole life. From clumsiness to short circuits, they tell us all about jazz, from blues to funk to bebop.
