To celebrate its 80 years, Petits Frères des Pauvres invite you to Théâtre du Châtelet for "Le Grand Show", an original artistic creation bringing together on stage senior citizens supported by the Association and celebrities such as Reda Kateb, Samir Guesmi, Felix Radu, Kareen Guiock Thuram, Rose et Punani, and Alex Ramires.
A creation built over several months
Far from being a simple show, "Le Grand Show" is a creation that takes shape through encounters and workshops. For several months, participants have rehearsed, experimented, and explored various disciplines to prepare for their entrance onto the Châtelet stage.
And behind the scenes, inspiring personalities are already emerging. Daisy, 94 years old, bursts with energy and never misses an opportunity to sing or make those around her laugh. Patrick, 63 years old, passionate about writing and theater, brings his creativity to the project. Sherazade, 58 years old, living with multiple sclerosis, collaborated with Dove Attia during her artistic journey. So many singular journeys that will help make this creation a unique moment.
Artists standing alongside seniors
Big names from song, cinema, and theater are taking part in the adventure. These artists will share the stage with the seniors: a powerful commitment from these personalities who will put their fame and talent at the service of the Association's message. The full cast of artists will be revealed shortly.
The Petits Frères des Pauvres Association
Since 1946, Petits Frères des Pauvres have been fighting loneliness and isolation among the elderly, prioritizing the most underprivileged. Present throughout France, the Association mobilizes nearly 15 000 volunteers and 350 staff members, supporting more than 26 000 isolated seniors each year. Through visits, collective activities, holiday trips, housing solutions… it acts every day to break isolation and recreate bonds. In 2026, Petits Frères des Pauvres celebrate 80 years of commitment.
