I don't know if this is going to find the right audience but I created a discord server for Starmania because I physically need to talk about it with people who understand my struggle !
This server is open to all, please feel free to join and discuss with us ! If you have art/writing/theories/any creation you want to share, this is the place to do it, I promise it will be nice to have a somewhat centralized place for that micro-fandom :)
[Edit: don't hesitate to message me if the link doesn't work]
Le plus grand rêve de Michel Berger était d'exporter son Starmania dans le monde entier ( malgré l'échec de la version Allemande ), une adaptation anglophone semblé pour lui une évidence ! Berger fera le déplacement jusqu'à New York pour faire enregistrer un album concept " Tycoon " ( qui sera plus tard rebaptisé sobrement : Starmania, version anglaise ) .

Seules les chansons : " Only The Very Best " et " The world is stone" connaitrons un certains succès , pas suffisant donc pour envisager de monter un spectacle à grande échelle , cette version anglaise ne sera au final chanté que de temps en temps par la troupe de 1993 au théâtre Mogador.

Ce semi échec sera le dernier projet de Michel Berger .
Malheureusement il rejoindra Daniel Balavoine le 2 août 1992 d'une crise cardiaque à seulement 44 ans. Laissant derrière lui une des plus grandes comédies musicales françaises et une place mérité parmi les plus grands auteurs compositeur français

ou pour découvrir d'autres comédie musical française :)
Have I said lately how much I adore Tybalt and Mercutio...?
Wanted to spend the night working on my thesis but my brain is on strike, my sister wanted to watch a movie, but then at dinner we got talking about the musicals that have built us together - the French musicals of our childhood - and so now...
We're eating cake and watching the base of ourselves, Roméo et Juliette - Les Enfants de Vérone, the 2010 version with John Eyzen because John Eyzen is just THE perfect Mercutio (in musicals, I mean) and Tom Ross as Tybalt, because they're the love of my life and I'll never get over how perfect they are. And we still (always) know all the words and all the songs...
Things we'll never recover from, no matter how old we are: Roméo et Juliette and Mozart L'Opéra Rock.
I'm not even kidding, I just have to hear one note from Damien Sargue or Mikelangelo Loconte and I'm 14 and out of my mind and out of control with emotions all over again.
And you should see us when "Les Rois du Monde" starts. Pure insanity.
