The Singer from Mexico

Approved

The operetta Le chanteur de Mexico (The Mexican Minstrel) was composed by Francis Lopez for Luis Mariano, the widely famous renowned Basque singer, and it premièred, to resounding acclaim, on December 15th, 1951 in the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris. Numerous performances were programmed for this production of Lopez’s spectacle. Lopez, although French by birth, was of Latin American origin and also had Basque forebears. The musician was particularly prodigious in the composition of operettas which would achieve fame through the voice of the Spanish tenor.
The show we are offering has a fantastic stage set, kitsch through and through, where a tropical, sophisticated technicolour world is recreated, as befits the type of cinema which pursues grand spectacle, and which is precisely the universe where all the layers of the story take place. A scene packed with comic situations in the midst of elements of Mexican folklore; full of huge flowers and pieces of fruit, of necessarily bright colours and, above all, full of good music.
