Live Magazine came to life onstage one spring evening in Paris. The idea was to offer a “99% true” ephemeral experience —a group of journalists telling gutsy stories not told elsewhere, creating a one-night live magazine. And it worked! Brussels, Geneva, Milan, London, Amsterdam... Beautiful theaters, captivated audiences, sold-out venues. And then we tried out other projects: our podcast The Ratline, produced with France Culture, is the hit of the year.
At Live Magazine, everything is true. We love facts. We created the magazine for the love of journalism. And we take advantage of this to teach the basics of the profession (that of reporter) but also the eminently perilous one of audience, of enlightened public facing the flow of the world news. Our Live Mag Academy program was a finalist for the Media Education Prize at the Assises Internationales du Journalisme, and is supported by the French Ministry of Culture.
