About the event
Mathieu Madenian returns to the stage with a show that’s as hilarious as it is touching—undoubtedly the most personal of his career. With a blend of biting self-deprecation and a sharp eye on our times, he takes us on a journey through the major upheaval in his life: becoming a father… later in life. In a fast-paced, hard-hitting hour-long performance, he recounts with disarming sincerity his doubts, his blunders, and his (often failed!) attempts to understand this new role. How can you be a father today when you grew up with a different set of values? How do you talk about modernity, gender, or social media… when you’re already overwhelmed by TikTok? With his unique sense of timing and his talent for turning everyday life into bursts of laughter, Mathieu Madenian delivers a show that’s both intimate and universal, in which everyone can see themselves reflected: parents, children, and even self-proclaimed boomers. A moment of pure stand-up—funny, tender, and deeply human… not to be missed. Directed by Kader Aoun. Unfiltered Q&A at 4:00 p.m. in the theater lobby. Price: €28 per night, 3-day pass €69.
