This is a new kind of charity evening in Chalon sur Saône, to be held on Saturday 09 December 2023 at 8pm in the 850-seat Grand Espace at the heart of the Espace des Arts in Chalon sur Saône.

The evening will bring together a variety of arts that are rarely combined in the same show. With a great deal of humility and a desire to entertain the public, we're bringing together a wide range of performers aiming for professionalism, even though we're almost all amateurs.


The proposed show has three objectives:
1. To bring audiences back to theatres after the COVID period: a number of artists have not been able to perform over a long period, so this evening is a good opportunity to show off and celebrate with the audience, and to make them want to come back to the venues.

2. Promoting local talent: we have a pool of good local artists of all ages, and the idea is to showcase them, give them the chance to perform and showcase their talent.

3. This is a charity evening broadcast live, with profits going to associations involved in providing entertainment in hospital paediatric wards. This provides families with material and financial support in difficult times. Talents sur Saône is broadcast live to the children's/young people's rooms in the paediatric wards of participating hospitals (William Morey in 2022).
