It’s not often that you hear of drag cabaret performances taking place in Monte-Carlo, but thankfully, times are changing.
On Thursday, December 19, 2024, at 8 p.m., the Princess Grace Theater
in Monaco will host Hugo Bardin, known as Paloma, the winner of *Drag
Race France* Season 1 (2022). As of next month, Paloma will bring her
show, *Paloma au PluriElles*, to the Monte-Carlo stage.
Born in 1991, Hugo Bardin is a true artistic polymath: an actor, singer,
performer, director, and screenwriter. His drag persona, Paloma, is one
of the most celebrated in France. Hugo introduced Paloma in 2018, and
the character quickly gained attention.
In 2021, Paloma starred in a short film of the same name, written and directed by Bardin himself. The film was showcased at multiple festivals, winning the Audience Award and Grand Prize for Best Original Music at the 2022 Marseille Music and Cinema Festival.
Paloma has toured across France with *Paloma au PluriElles*, a
one-woman show where she takes on a variety of characters. Now, for the
first time, audiences in Monte-Carlo will get to experience her dynamic
performance.
With his versatility and charm, Hugo Bardin has
captivated audiences and solidified his place in French culture, hinting
that his journey is only beginning.
This is a performance not to be missed—secure your tickets early!
