Seen by over 800,000 spectators and praised by The New York Times as “Learning to be French through comedy!”, this award-winning one-man show by Olivier Giraud is a must-see experience in Paris!

Performed in a historic 600-seat theatre in the vibrant Opéra district, surrounded by locals and an international audience, this show hilarious and interactive is the perfect night out in Paris.
