Yes and this year again thanks to
Vanessa Franchetti and her troupe for animating this popular event to celebrate
La Fête des Rois. There
will be galettes and wine and as with all good parties you are very welcome to
give us your ‘party piece’- perhaps a poem or a song in either French or
English. So don’t miss ….
La Fête des Rois et Bal
Musette
While this event is free to members we do ask
for a small contribution of £5 from non-members. In order to help us judge numbers could you
perhaps email to me the total number you expect in your party?
Les Mis
On 11th January the film of the
musical ‘Les Misérables’ will open in a cinema near you. Okay, it’s not a patch
on Hugo’s masterpiece nevertheless it does capture much of the spirit of his
novel. The French connection is truly
there as the music is by Claude-Michel
Schönberg and the original French lyrics were written by Alain
Boublil.
Fest Diez
A new series of monthly session of Breton Dancing begin …
on Saturday 12th January 2013
in Madden’s Bar, 74 Berry
Street, Belfast
from 5pm to 8pm
As always the music will be provided by French and Irish
musicians and Amélie will be there to guide you through the steps.

in Ireland see the BreizhEire website
Looking
forward to seeing you on 9th January. Bonne Année, Philip
