The Poët Poët Days, the second phase of the Festival “Poetry in All its Art Forms” initiated by Sabine Venaruzzo five years ago, promises a week rich in varied and exceptional events until March 27th!!!
Since March 10th, from the Tchatcheur Night organized at the Volume to the Love Letters Reading at the Sorbonne in Nice (nearly 500 letters were collected from the Artist Love Letter Boxes!), through the screening of the film Poetry at the Mercury, the Slam Poetry evening at the Cave Romagnan, Maxime Dejoux-Guidot’s photo exhibition at the Fnac, the “Mixed Performances” evening at Museaav, the musical tale by Modibo Sangaré and Chérif Gasama at the Garibaldi Associations Space or even the “immobile journey” by the Attraction Company at the heart of the Sorbonne again, the Poët Poët Days have been a great success for this 2011 edition and will continue to highlight Poetry on their 5th anniversary!

Five artists – lyrical singers, actors, musicians – inquire without preconceptions the essential works of the Prévert-Kosma duo and other friends:
Les Feuilles Mortes, Barbara,
Si tu t’imagines, Page d’Ecriture, Je suis comme je suis, la Fourmi…

forgotten dead leaves… the cocktail is energizing, explosive, and refreshing!!!
