An unexpected event forced the En direct de l’univers to react quickly on Saturday

It’s an unexpected event that happens all too often in television: a guest must participate in a program who withdraws, more or less at the last minute, forcing the production to “shift 10 cents” to fill the time and that nothing appears in the end result.

We only see fire in the air, but forceslive from the universe We often have to deal with this kind of last minute reversal. And especially for two years, when a particular virus called COVID-19 often runs and forces people to revise their plans without warning!

This was particularly the case on Saturday, when a guest – whose identity must be concealed – sang in honor of the star of the day, Michel Vaughn, finally canceled his visit due to the loss of his voice.

Present in the group, team Showbizz.net The tour witnessed the small force made by France Baudouin and her gang to fill the hole left by this uncalculated absence. Schedules were reworked from Saturday’s meeting during a public rehearsal, between 3:30 p.m. and 5 p.m., with the help of artists already in the studio. The renovated parts fit together harmoniously. So clever who could have discovered, while making the full show, both on set and on screen, that a character had failed in just a few hours.

Éliane Lévesque, Assistant Director of Production atlive from the universe, told us that this kind of relapse never happens the same way. On Saturday, the team learned at 3 p.m. that one of the players would be missing. It was then necessary to find a solution quickly, since the final dress rehearsal (rehearsallive from the universe spread over two days, Friday and Saturday) usually starts at 3:45 p.m. on a Saturday afternoon.

But, according to Ilyan Levsk, the small army of valiant soldierslive from the universe It is never short of resources for keeping furniture. In 14 years, France and its accomplices have seen more!

” We always have many options and plans b. We are not closed off. Someone else can come and sing the song. We have people who can do everything, multi-talented artists, so there is absolutely no problem. Today was a little easier; We took another song, a song from our guest tonight’s repertoire, and used it with someone who was already on the show. There are guests who sometimes come back in several blocks, but when they only sing one song, it’s easy to bring them back Summarized by Ilyan Levsk.

The famous questionnaire – almost 200 questions! – which the artists celebrated before the D-Day response is also a valuable help in the event of a malfunction.

” This means we can go and play in a lot of angles, which allows us to get around. There are only questions of rights [musicaux, NDLR] to be respected. Of course, artists should know the song and not need three days to learn it! (Laugh) »
