Our program of plays in Paris in 2023


Between magic shows, comedy, classic plays, and contemporary works, our Laurette Theatre invites you to discover a rich and varied program. Enjoy an experience that is both individual and collective, alongside performing arts professionals and all the other audience members attending the same show!


Here are the plays in Paris that we offer:


No Exit

Written by Jean-Paul Sartre in 1943, this work is certainly one of the best known in his repertoire. Eighty years later, in 2023, Karine Kadi takes on the challenge of presenting a new production at our Laurette Theatre. On our stage, Sebastian Barrio, Karine Battaglia, and Laurence Meini share this claustrophobic drama where each becomes the executioner of the others!


“Hell is other people”, certainly... But who are these other people?


Following in the footsteps of Arsène Lupin: between magic and mentalism

Ready to follow in the footsteps of the greatest illusionist? Jean-Michel Lupin, author, director and performer, takes on the crazy challenge of inviting you on a baffling adventure that takes place in the very heart of your thoughts. 


Mind reading and manipulation, numerology, behavioral analysis, predictions… He questions and teases your mind with playful and cleverly crafted tricks! This interactive show is ideal for families, delighting both young and old.


It's a hit at the Avignon OFF Festival!


Let's simplify spelling. Shall we vote?

Enter the torment of a renowned grammarian forced to simplify French spelling after being blackmailed. For 1 hour and 5 minutes, Nadia Mouron and Bernard Fripiat star in this play set in Paris, during which the audience becomes the arbiter of their disagreements!


Before coming, make sure you are up to date with your spelling and etymological knowledge… It will be up to you to vote for or against the reform.


The Maids

Having died in 1947, Claire and Solange Lemercier are two spirits trapped in the world they left behind. They tirelessly relive their roles as maids, reproducing their habits and rituals, always with the aim of pleasing "Madame"!


To enter the world of this tale, sometimes fantastic, sometimes realistic, let the staging and the performance of the two actresses transport you, respecting Jean Genet's masterpiece in almost its entirety.


Lantern Man

With your head in the stars, you'll witness this play in Paris. Dragolin and Bonhomme Lampions have a mission to show you the individual as they are when they emerge from a hellish struggle between the life force and self-denial.


Between classical theatre and dramatic theatre, Bertrand Carnebuse takes you on a journey.


Mars & Venus

If you're one of those who believe that men and women are different and not meant to live together, this play is for you! On stage, Cie Phénix dismantles false beliefs and preconceived notions, putting reality back into perspective so that we can truly understand the challenges of a life together.


It's a hit couple's comedy!


Mechanics of the Unforeseen

With family or friends, come to this improvisation show where you alone can suggest the themes. For 1 hour and 15 minutes, the entire ON/OFF company will be hanging on your every word, creating a play right before your eyes that, for once, hasn't been rehearsed!


Experiencing a play in Paris is undoubtedly the best way to leave the worries of daily life behind. For the duration of the performance, let yourself be carried away by the joys and sorrows, the shouts and laughter, of all the characters who have bravely come to speak before you.
