France will stage a series of cultural programs dominated by music during the Expo period. French actor Alain Delon, also 2010 World Expo ambassador for France, has exclusively composed a musical "Douce France" for Expo 2010 and the musical will make its debut at the Expo Center.
The musical features familiar tunes such as the "La Vie En Rose" and tunes fitting the theme of the France Pavilion and suitable for wedding ceremonies.
Two floats, each carrying the pavilion's mascot of a cat called Léon and the Michelin man, will tour the Expo site during the fair. Léon will also interact with visitors in the France Pavilion.
