Switzerland<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"gmail_default\">\r\n<p data-start=\"72\" data-end=\"486\"><strong data-start=\"72\" data-end=\"486\">More than ever, the musical is in fashion, both on screen, with box-office hits like <em data-start=\"158\" data-end=\"170\">La La Land<\/em>, <em data-start=\"172\" data-end=\"186\">Emilia Perez<\/em> or <em data-start=\"190\" data-end=\"199\">Joker 2<\/em>, and on stage in major shows at the Arena such as <em data-start=\"250\" data-end=\"261\">Starmania<\/em>, <em data-start=\"263\" data-end=\"279\">Les Mis\u00e9rables<\/em> or <em data-start=\"283\" data-end=\"300\">West Side Story<\/em> at Beaulieu. But what does that mean in French-speaking Switzerland? How has this art form, long dismissed as corny by French speakers, broken out of its niche to captivate audiences?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p data-start=\"488\" data-end=\"975\">To dive into this chapter of cultural history, we follow a woman whose path is exemplary in the Romand scene: <strong data-start=\"598\" data-end=\"616\">Aude Gilli\u00e9ron<\/strong>. At fifteen, she discovered musicals, fell in love with the genre, decided to make it her career, and dedicated herself to a discipline that demands the same effort as opera, for only a fraction of the recognition and financial support. Despite hardships, she climbed every rung, audition after audition, eventually making her mark in <em data-start=\"951\" data-end=\"963\">Mamma Mia!<\/em> in Paris.<\/p>\r\n<p data-start=\"977\" data-end=\"1468\">This documentary is itself a musical, a \u201cmusical documentary\u201d even, since its voice-over is a song, performed by Aude herself. Written by <strong data-start=\"1113\" data-end=\"1133\">Blaise Bersinger<\/strong> to a score by <strong data-start=\"1148\" data-end=\"1171\">Jos\u00e9phine Maillefer<\/strong>, the song serves as a guiding thread, weaving Aude Gilli\u00e9ron\u2019s journey into the larger history of the Romand musical. Verse by verse, the documentary tells the story of a passion shared by a large part of the population, by many artists, and by a handful of structures devoted to this art form.<\/p>\r\n<p data-start=\"1470\" data-end=\"2270\">Many voices retrace this epic of the musical in Romandie: <strong data-start=\"1528\" data-end=\"1546\">Ursula Perakis<\/strong>, founder of the first dance school specializing in musicals in French-speaking Switzerland in the 1990s, and <strong data-start=\"1656\" data-end=\"1674\">Floriane Iseli<\/strong>, who opened a similar school in La Chaux-de-Fonds; <strong data-start=\"1726\" data-end=\"1742\">Noam Perakis<\/strong> and <strong data-start=\"1747\" data-end=\"1761\">C\u00e9line Rey<\/strong>, who run the Th\u00e9\u00e2tre Barnab\u00e9, the nerve center of the Romand musical with its 40,000 annual spectators, together with <strong data-start=\"1878\" data-end=\"1899\">Emmanuel Samatani<\/strong>, its long-time artistic director. Finally, producer <strong data-start=\"1952\" data-end=\"1980\">Ylan Assefy-Waterdrinker<\/strong> and artists <strong data-start=\"1993\" data-end=\"2011\">Giliane B\u00e9guin<\/strong>, <strong data-start=\"2013\" data-end=\"2028\">Lo\u00efc Fleury<\/strong>, and <strong data-start=\"2034\" data-end=\"2052\">Faustine Jenny<\/strong> recount the realities of the profession. All of these testimonies are illuminated by the expertise of <strong data-start=\"2155\" data-end=\"2172\">Alain Perroux<\/strong>, author of <em data-start=\"2184\" data-end=\"2219\">La com\u00e9die musicale mode d\u2019emploi<\/em> and new director of the Grand Th\u00e9\u00e2tre de
