Au pays du soleil

Vincent Scotto

Considered the very first Marseilles operetta, Au pays du soleil saw the light of day in Paris (Moulin de la Chanson) in 1932.

In it, we meet Marseillais basking in the sun and making a living from trafficking. The characters in Alibert?s libretto seem to have been taken from Pagnol?s Marius (the film was released in 1931). Alibert himself created the lead role. The success was so great that a film was made. In 1952, a second film was produced, starring Tino Rossi. And a TV version (with Andrex) was broadcast in 1961. The next day, the whole of France was whistling "À petits pas" or "J?ai rêvé d?une fleur".

The Odéon continues its tribute to the "man of 4,000 songs", a glorious native of the region who also left us "Marinella", "J'ai deux amours" and "Le plus beau tango du monde".

Can yesterday?s friends still be today?s friends? That's the strange question posed by François Morel in his production of Yasmina Reza's famous play Art.
