STOMP at Folie Bergere!

Just for fun, we bought tickets to STOMP the other day because we heard the show was at a famous old cabaret theatre in Paris and it was the 2nd last day of the show. Luckily we got tickets for an early show and enjoyed a performance of STOMP where we wouldn’t have to worry about a production in French that we couldn’t understand. 🙂 If you haven’t heard of Stomp performances, perhaps my short video clip will explain:

Folie Beregere has a colourful history and famous actors such as Charlie Chaplin performed there.  For this reason, we just really went to take in the atmosphere and sit in a world renowned theatre from the late 1800’s to get a sense for what it was like to be in that audience.  The chairs/seating were ancient red velvet with wooden renaissance carved arms.  We felt like we’d gone back in time.IMG_0914

AFTER THE SHOW:  Later we had dinner and a nice walk through Paris. Then Greg went in a different direction to meet friends while Chris and I walked the Champs with Bri up to the Arc de Triumph. I thought I’d take some train station photos for memory sake, so here we are on the Champs and on our way home by metro.  Photos are not great quality from my phone, but it will be a reminder of all the metros we had to take in Paris.
