And it was not very fashionable, it was complicated, it was not like today”, he explains. But when Jacques Martin came to pick him up, little David immediately found a smile. : “So my father took us when he could. And when he could, in spite of everything, there was work, the tour. He took me by the hand, we got in the car, off we went. And then me.. When you’re eight years old, it’s fantastic…”.

And of course, the set, the theaters in which he played”.
