EDITH PIAF AT 100: An “encore” celebration of her Centennial
Scobar Entertainment presents: Acclaimed cabaret show tells Piaf’s story through chansons, circus and burlesque
On Jan 26th, Myriam Phiro will guide us through the decadent world of Edith Piaf using her timeless songs to retell the life of this iconic performer. After successful performances of her debut cabaret show at 54 Below, the Metropolitan Room & Drom, Ms. Phiro, accompanied by a traditional musette band and multi-disciplinary backup singers, will recreate the brothels, circuses and nightclubs that created the great Piaf we all know, this time at the Iridium. The performance will last 75 minutes and is not to be missed!
2015 marked Edith Piaf's centennial. ‘La Môme Piaf’, as she was nicknamed, introduced America to the world of ‘Chanson Réaliste’. Her songbook has become classic and still engages audiences worldwide. However, her early life is shrouded in mystery – daughter of a circus performer, childhood in a brothel, blind for years and ‘miraculously’ cured by a pilgrimage St. Therese – these stories and more are brought to life with music, dance and circus performance in exciting cabaret show.

Review of the show: “Ms. Phiro generously plied us with one gorgeous song after another and impressed us with her expressivity and vocal beauty […]. If you are looking for legend and fine musical values you have plenty to enjoy […] The evening was an effective portrayal of one woman's conception of an artist's life--lived fully, if not wisely.” –Meche Kroop, Voce di Meche
