Starmania 2006
This version is technically only semi-official ... but the project is so beautiful and ambitious that I couldn't leave it aside !!
Proposed by director Bertrand Labarre with the permission of Plamondon and the sponsorship of Luck Mervil
( Best known for his role as Clopin of Notre Dame de Paris 1999 )
This Caribbean version was performed in Port-au-Prince by the "Haiti en Scène" troope for approximately three years (2006-2008)
The last performances, however, took place in Montreal at the request of Michaëlle Jean, then Governor General of Canada

This version has the distinction of being performed in Antillean Creole ( with severe reorchestration to fit with the local musical culture )
Unfortunately, there is no album or complete recording of the show

ANECDOTES :
This is the only version where the Starmania universe cites a MUCH more distant future !! The "3000s" replaces the usual "2000s"
More Starmania ? Curious to discover other French musicals ?
