An evening of music and drama about the French singer-songwriter Georges Brassens and his time in Germany.
Georges Brassens (1921–1981), one of the most significant chansonniers of the 20th century, has a special connection with Germany, Berlin and the surrounding area. In 1943, he arrived in Basdorf from Paris as a forced labourer and worked there for about a year in aircraft engine production at BMW.

The programme links this story with his songs, some of which were actually written whilst he was in Basdorf.
To mark the 45th anniversary of Brassens’s death, the audience is invited on a journey into the past. This exploration of a particular period in his life and the work of this non-conformist, provocative and humorous poet is highly topical.
Participants:
Timothée Dumont (actor and singer), Luca Storz (jazz musician), Volkmar Paschold (jazz, soul and funk musician). Dramaturgy: Jens Mehrle
Supported by Dezentrale Kulturarbeit Reinickendorf
