PIAF! The Show

A sensational musical experience that tells the incredible life story of Edith Piaf

The French crowd-pleaser Piaf! The Show is returning to Finland! Directed by Gil Marsalla, this musical spectacle is a tribute to Edith Piaf, the most respected French singer of all time. It tells the incredible life story of the little sparrow of Paris through her unforgettable songs.

A life marked by tragedies and passionate love affairs took Edith Piaf from the slums of Paris to the limelight, and her career saw the creation of iconic songs such as La vie en rose; Non, je ne regrette rien; La foule; and Padam padam. The singer interpreting Piaf’s songs in the show is the acclaimed French singer Nathalie Lermitte, who has an amazing voice and is deservedly considered the greatest Piaf tribute artist of all time.

Over a million people have seen Piaf! The Show, which has toured the world since 2015, with over 600 performances in over 50 countries. The show has sold out the legendary Carnegie Hall in New York and the Olympia Hall in Paris, among other venues. It is the most successful French show of this decade.

Piaf! The Show visited Finland in 2023 and 2025, when it sold out both Musiikkitalo and the Savoy Theatre several nights in a row. This time, audiences will be able to see the show in five Finnish cities: Turku, Helsinki, Hämeenlinna, Oulu and Kuopio.

The show consists of two 45-minute performances, with an intermission in between.

Minimum age recommendation: 12 and over.

The floor: R18 alcohol serving area. The gallery: no age restrictions, no alcohol serving.
