Chantal Goya

Chantal Goya celebrates half a century of songs and stories centered on Marie-Rose. On 29 March 2026, at the Palais des Congrès in Paris, she revisits the standout tableaux from her major shows and immerses the audience once more in that innocent world where characters come to life to the beat of familiar refrains. The performance recalls the fantasy of Marie-Rose, her fellow performers and an entire imagination shaped by Jean-Jacques Debout’s melodies, between simple poetry and shared memories.

This event unfolds fifty years of catchy tunes and short sketches, designed to be passed from generation to generation, without overt nostalgia and with the simple pleasure of singing together. Chantal Goya sketches a musical narrative that moves between dreams, nursery rhymes and little adventures, with her direct way of speaking to children as well as to parents. It is an occasion to measure the longevity of a repertoire that continues to bring people together and to rediscover the gentle charm of musical theatre seen from a child’s perspective.
