                  Imagine a radio show dedicated to vintage French songs, and you’ve got the gist of La vie en Rosen.

                  Cindy Rosen is your host, singing homage to love, life, family, and the beauty of Parisien cabaret.

                  The show is 90% sung by Cindy and accompanied by talented pianist Marque Smith. All songs are sung in French; however, you don’t need to know the language to feel the emotions being sung (if you do parlez français – come to the Sun Jun 2 performance which will be entirely in French).

                  Other nice touches include vintage family photos shared during the snow and extensive song trivia in her program.

                  Review based on the Wed, May 29 performance.

                  One of the great pleasures of the Fringe Festival is finding that hidden gem of a show. La Vie en Rosen is that show at this years Fringe. Performed and sung by Cindy Rosen and brilliantly accompanied on piano by Marque Smith the play tells the story of Cindy’s mother through narration (in English), and French songs.

                  Clever, beautifully performed and sung, it’s a wonderfully light and entertaining way to spend an hour. This is a show for all ages and one that I strongly recommend the show. How much do I recommend it. I’ve been going to Fringe shows for over 20 years and I would put this shows easily in my top ten favorite shows. Run don’t walk to catch this show!

                  Note that the show on Sunday, June 2, at 2:00 pm will be entirely in French. All other performances are narrated in English

                  I very much enjoyed this performance. Cindy’s story took me back to a time that I may be too young to know about, but that I still feel connected to because of my French heritage. It was also such a nice feeling to hear some French music at the London Fringe. It is quite the rarity here in this city for some French classics. Trenet, Aznavour, Dassin, and even some French Eartha Kitt. Cindy’s story will inspire and make you feel like you’ve been transported to a French bistro on a calm sunny day. I think I need to pack my bags and go back there asap. Congrats Cindy and Marque!!
