This last recital will remain forever marked in the history of the famous hall. It is one of the only testimonies of Jacques Brel on stage where his talent was best expressed. This concert also retains a very strong emotional dimension because it is his last tour.
Funny, unifier, subversive, Coluche was much more than a comedian. This show recorded at the Elysée Montmartre in 1976 brings together the greatest sketches of the comedian with a big heart: the cop, the poem, the cancer or the hitchhiker will make you laugh! A show that has remained in the annals thanks to the famous scene where Coluche tried to play "Le temps des cerises" on the violin... with boxing gloves!

Es la adaptación de un monólogo teatral, también publicado en forma de libro, obra de Spalding Gray. Escritor, guionista, monologuista, actor de teatro y performance, Spalding Gray rememora en esta obra su experiencia como actor de reparto, en el papel de cónsul, en la película “Los gritos del silencio”; la perturbadora denuncia de la trágica y sangrienta historia contemporánea de Camboya. Spalding Gray tiene un gran currículo como actor de reparto en el cine y la televisión americana. Es sin embargo una peculiar figura de la escena teatral alternativa de Nueva York. Sus peripecias vitales también han dado como fruto monólogos filmados como en “Gray´s Anatomy”. En algo más de una hora, en “Nadando a Camboya”, tras un escritorio y con la ayuda de un mapa de Camboya y un proyector desgrana su experiencia y sus reflexiones de y sobre el sudeste asiático. Para la banda sonora contó con la colaboración de la cantautora y compositora Laurie Anderson.
