TV PROGRAM | FRANCE 2 – 9:05 p.m. “That’s Paris!” is the new UFO from France 2, which looks at the world of entertainment, its dramas and its divas. With a little air of Ten Percent…
A new event series and a new UFO approaching: That’s Paris!the new series initiated by France 2 was scheduled from Wednesday November 27, in prime-time on France 2. Divided into 6 episodes of 52 minutes, the program is an original creation by a certain Dominique Besnehard, co-producer from the hit series Ten percent. And instead of the movie star agency which had the success of the latter, That’s Paris! will plunge us this time into the heart of the fascinating and mysterious world of Parisian cabarets.
The plot of This is Paris ! takes us into the daily life of “Tout-Paris”, a legendary cabaret but losing momentum. Gaspard Berthille, played by Alex Lutz, has inherited his father’s establishment and is working hard to restore it to its former glory. Between outdated numbers and hazardous financial management, the new boss will have to redouble his inventiveness to save his cabaret from bankruptcy.
The recipe for Ten percent, but not only
Like Ten percent which dissected the daily life of agents of actors and actresses, This is Paris ! takes us behind the scenes of another very particular environment: that of Parisian cabarets, between rhinestones, sequins and backstage low blows. And as for Ten percentDominique Besnehard managed to convince a good range of guest stars to come and make notable appearances for an episode or two. A recipe that could still be successful This is Paris !
On the distribution side, the series directed by Marc Fitoussi brings together a five-star cast led by the talented Alex Lutz, Nicolas Maury, Charlotte de Turckheim and the iconic Monica Bellucci. Anne Marvin, Aurore Clément, Line Renaud, Bernard Le Coq and even the star shoe designer Christian Louboutin complete this cast as eclectic as it is promising.
This is Paris ! will count on two major assets to transcribe all the magic of the music hall: the pop and baroque composer Bertrand Burgalat signs the music, while the choreographies are provided by a certain Kamel Ouali. Enough to offer viewers a sumptuous spectacle which should demonstrate once again how much Paris is a party!
