Le Dixieband, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, banjo, sousaphone and drums
Marielle Grenier, actress and singer
The ageless, electrifying music of Dixieland recalls the festive atmosphere of the early years of the 20th century when the New Orleans and Dixieland styles emerged. The show focuses on the songs, dances and dreams of this colourful period, as a lively old lady called Miss New Orleans relives her young, carefree years. Like a gramophone that takes us back in time, Miss N.O. introduces the audience, to her marvellous memories, as she recounts the legends of Blues, Charleston, Shimmy and Scat music. A magical, rhythmic show that is educational, exciting, and nostalgic, and that will enchant the whole family!
