Thursday 17 July 2025 – Olivia Moore
Building on the success of her two previous shows, “Mère Indigne” and “Egoïste”, Olivia Moore is back with her new show, “Oui, je sais”
Building on the success of her two previous shows, “Mère Indigne” and “Egoïste”, Olivia Moore now declares “Oui, je sais”, a cerebral and very funny stand-up show about our (her) vulnerabilities.
“To write this show, I asked myself what I would talk about on stage if I were no longer ashamed of it. So I did it – and believe it or not, it’s both hilarious and liberating. So much so that you may well want to do the same on your way out.”
Thursday 31 July 2025 – Marion Manca
After 12 years of loyal service to the Éducation Nationale, Marion Manca decides to drop her school bag and take to the stage.
She was often told that being a primary school teacher was a bit like being an actress: either way, you speak in front of an audience. Maybe… Except that when you’re an actress, at the end of your working day you get applause rather than your teeth knocked out – well… normally! And if you’re going to be an actress, why not go the whole way and launch into a one-woman show?
Raised on the motto “Where there’s a will, there’s a way!”, which her mother has drummed into her ever since her first baby tooth appeared, the former teacher from a priority education area (ZEP) decides to take the plunge. Like the diligent, conscientious pupil she is, she draws on the classics of the genre and revisits them in her own way to create this first one-woman show that is all her own… From her memories of school in the northern districts of Marseille to her stories from film shoots, by way of the zany, madcap characters she has come across here and there, Marion wants to share with the audience her mad desire to laugh about everything without making fun of anything!
Tuesday 5 August 2025 – Simon Noëns
After filling the bathtub in his bathroom several times in a row…
After accidentally setting fire to a municipal bin,
After putting up a “sold out” sign on a packet of artisan pasta,
After winning 1st prize in the Jokari competition in Saint-Palais-sur-Mer in 1992…
Simon Noëns begins his final dates before the Olympia.
Thursday 7 August 2025 – Stan Benett
50% impressionist – 50% singer – 100% performer
Between vocal feats and offbeat parodies, between journeys and tributes, Stan revisits the classics of French and international music with humour and emotion.
A trip around the world in which voices and musical styles bring you sunshine, laughter and nostalgia. You will discover or rediscover his unique concept, in which he reinvents great international hits with humour and in French – auditory hallucinations guaranteed! You will never listen to the hits of yesterday and today in the same way again!
Thursday 14 August 2025 – Kenny Martineau
Kenny is a man, a real one! A far cry from male clichés, he hates football and beer. He prefers figure skating and cocktails…
The modern man – that’s surely him! Neither gay nor macho: in this show you will discover a sensitive man with a feminine side that is very present in every aspect of his life.
From a gently turbulent youth to an ordinarily stormy married life, for more than an hour Kenny pays a tribute, by turns funny and moving, to the women in his life – without forgetting all the others!
Ladies, you will finally understand why your little “charms” are actually called flaws. Gentlemen, you are not alone in your suffering… Come along: it’s also a support group where we tell each other everything! Kenny blows up sexist clichés one by one, owning with tenderness and self-mockery all his little “princess” ways, as he calls them, because, after all, a man is a woman like any other!
Tuesday 19 August 2025 – Mano Parmigiano & Baby Rudy
Baba Rudy You discovered him in The Circle on Netflix, now see him on stage. Rudy is that old mate you haven’t seen for far too long: he turns up, makes himself at home and reels off all his unlikely stories – from awkward confessions to fits of laughter.
Mano Parmigiano Mano is the mate you always invite at the last minute… and who ends up stealing the show. A graduate of Éric & Ramzy’s Comedy Class, she is bursting with abrasive energy, with a frank, spontaneous sense of humour that is never quite politically correct. With her, no one is spared – least of all you.
Thursday 21 August 2025 – Jean Jérôme Esposito
En quarantaine is a funny, intelligent one-man show, just the kind Jean-Jérôme Esposito loves to offer.
The character, alone on stage, turns 40 tonight. Everything about him has aged: his body, his relationship, his friends, his ideals, his daily life, his desires, his outlook on life… This feeling of unease, and the urgency he feels on his birthday to steer his life in a new direction, push him to break out of this sense of confinement and leave everything behind to be 20 again.
In this attempt, peppered with offbeat situations, he will come to realise that a new maturity allows him to write a new chapter of his life.
“What if you could change everything – would you?” It is to take up this challenge that the character gives himself the chance to change it all, but along this journey full of offbeat and very funny situations, he will come to realise that this new maturity allows him to write a new chapter.
