Not one, but two shows will be organized in Montreal in the space of a few days to support the victims of the terrible earthquake that shook Morocco on September 8.
First, Rachid Badouri launched a call to his comedian friends to present the sixth edition of Nous pour vous, which will be used to raise donations for the Canadian Red Cross. “In these moments of great tragedies of natural disasters, we often feel very helpless thousands of kilometers away,” Rachid Badouri wrote in a press release. Since the terrible earthquake of September 8, my heart has been bleeding for Morocco! » Created for the first time in 2017, the show Nous pour vous aims to help people affected by different humanitarian crises. First created to help flood victims in Quebec, the show has since seen more than twenty comedians join Rachid Badouri to raise a little over $200,000 for people in need. .
This time, it was Laurent Paquin, Christine Morency, Eddy King, Anas Assouna, Neev Bensimon, Oussama Farès and Douaa Kachache who responded without hesitation to the initiative of the comedian of Moroccan origin. All these beautiful people will be on stage at the Olympia on October 9.
Three days later, it will be the turn of artists MB, Loud, La Zarra, Lost, White-B, Rowjay, Souldia, Ya Cetidon, Capt. Gaza, Mikalya and 4Say to take to the stage at the venue on rue Sainte-Catherine Est. This musical evening will be organized in collaboration with Pollen Records. “Having experienced the earthquake in Morocco on September 8, I was able to see the damage and witness the great unprecedented outpouring of solidarity from Moroccans,” said Charaf Bouregaa, director and partner at Pollen Records. I also wanted to help the Moroccan people, and we are very happy that the artists here all agreed without hesitation to perform to help Morocco recover! »
