Event information
Step into a velvet-tinted reverie where the cobbled streets of Montmartre meet the glittering glamour of Boisdale. On this very special evening, we welcome the sensational Susan Black to channel the soul of France’s greatest songbird, Edith Piaf.
Described by The Guardian as someone who “breathes life into Piaf’s legacy like no one else”, Susan doesn’t just sing Piaf, she becomes her. With a career that spans the Royal Albert Hall to the West End, her voice tells stories the way Piaf did with raw emotion, fierce vulnerability and that oh-so-French fire.
From the heartache of “La Vie en Rose” to the defiant cry of “Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien”, Susan leads us through Piaf’s life not just with music, but with moving tales, glimmers of humour and that elusive je ne sais quoi. Every sigh, every crescendo, every whispered lyric draws you deeper into the world of “La Môme”.
Did you know Piaf was discovered while singing on a street corner in Paris and refused to wear glamorous stage clothes, insisting on her iconic little black dress? That same defiant spirit lives on in Susan’s performance - elegant, raw and unapologetically real.
With an exceptional live band behind her and a heart full of chanson, Susan Black is set to conjure the spirit of Piaf in a way that will have you swaying, sobbing and sipping your Burgundy like a true Parisian.
Book your table, order something decadent, and let the music take you there. Paris awaits… only at Boisdale.
