Le soldat rose is a 2006 French-language children's musical with music by Louis Chedid and lyrics by Pierre-Dominique Burgaud.^[1][2] The plot of the musical is about a little boy who hides in the toy section of a department store at night, where the toys come to life.

After the studio sessions the recording line-up gave two live shows at Le Grand Rex, Paris, in November 2006, released on DVD in February following. Sales of the CD were above 350,000 by April 207, and the album was awarded Best Chanson/Variétés Album at the 2007 Victoires de la musique.^[3]
