Following its debut performances at The Hotel Cafe and El Portal Theatre in Los Angeles, California, a bio-musical on legendary world singer Charles Aznavour will mark its New York City presentation on Sunday, March 1, 2020 at Symphony Space. Charles fuses the extraordinary life story of Aznavour with the live performances of his most famous songs, from La Boheme to Hier Encore to Les Deux Guitares. The production, written and directed by Taleen Babayan, highlights the professional and personal challenges of the acclaimed and beloved entertainer throughout his storied career, while showcasing the musical talents of Los Angeles-based performers Maurice Soudjian, Bernard C. Bayer, Mariette Soudjian, Harout Soghomonian and Levon Ghanimian. The show serves as an homage to his legacy, while capturing the charismatic spirit he embodied as a singer, lyricist, actor, diplomat and humanitarian. "Aznavour achieved success in his own right, surpassing musical genres while never forgetting his roots, thus leaving a lasting imprint on the world music scene," said Babayan. "Despite his passing, he is still revered and his lifelong artistic quest marks every touchpoint that wholly fulfills a stage story."
