Behind closed doors

80 years after its writing, Huis Clos appeared on the stages of the Laurette Théâtre. On the occasion of the year 2023, Jean-Paul Sartre's three best-known protagonists take you into a humanist reflection where each plays their own role. At the moment of their judgment, they are faced with relentless executioners but above all facing their own demons, their own actions.


Contemplating your life can be real torture...


In the footsteps of Arsène Lupin: between magic and mentalism

Jean-Michel Lupine takes you in the footsteps of Arsène, the greatest gentleman burglar ever known. In front of his audience, in front of you, he challenges himself to invite himself into the very heart of your thoughts via playful and well-crafted tricks of which he alone has the secret. During his show in Paris, he questions and teases your mind to create an interactive tour over time!


It’s a success of the Avignon OFF Festival.


Simplify the spelling. Shall we vote?

A word of advice: before going to this show, check your knowledge of grammar and the etymology of the French language... Yes, for 1h05, Nadia Mouron and Bernard Fripiat play with you but especially with words! You will then be the new protagonists, arbiters of their differences on the subject.


The Good

This emblematic work by Jean Genet is one of the key shows to see in Paris at the moment! On our stages, Claire & Solange Lemercier, two maids who died in 1947, tirelessly relive their role with “Madame”... Until experiencing the last ceremony again, the famous one!


This masterpiece is respected in almost its entirety in order to transport you between two worlds perfectly evoked by the author: the fantastic and the realistic.


Snowman Lanterns 

Dragolin and Bonhomme Lampions come before you, under the lights of our theater in Paris, to show you the individual who emerges from an infernal struggle between the vital impulse and self-denial. 

Sail into the world of Bertrand Carnebuse!


Mars & Venus

Do you think that men and women are two different beings? Do you think they are not meant to live together? Do you think each of them has a way of seeing things or are they just pretending not to understand each other? 


To answer all these questions, watch this truly successful couple comedy. If you want to understand how a couple works, now is the time!


The mechanics of the unexpected

The ON/OFF Company has a surprise for you! This time, it is with your themes and your ideas that they will play in front of you and, perhaps, play on you... For 1h15, let each of the actors take their place and occupy the role that you have given them entrusted.


Our performance hall in Paris welcomes you all year round to allow you to experience deep emotions. Discover must-have pieces!

Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere. Voice assistants in our phones algorithms who recommend films, she is gradually inviting herself into our daily lives. For some, it is synonymous with innovation and progress. For others, it arouses concerns, especially on its impact on employment, creativity or even human relationships. This technological revolution, which upsets our relationship to the world, could therefore only inspire the theater, an art that feeds on the air to question our society. When AI invites itself on stage ... But not as one imagines one might think that AI in the theater means robots on stage or dialogues entirely generated by algorithms. However, it is not from this angle that the authors and directors take hold of it. Artificial intelligence becomes above all a source of inspiration for the world of spectacle, a pretext to explore universal themes such as communication, intergenerational conflicts and the place of human in a changing world. The theater, as a mirror of our contemporary concerns, is less interested in technological prowess than in the upheavals that they provoke in our lives. The stories that result from it are often tinged with humor and reflection, because behind the supposed coldness of the machines hide very human questions. Does artificial intelligence, a subject of captivating spectacle for the public why does artificial intelligence make such a good subject of show? First, because it is at the heart of the news. We talk about it in the media, we debate in the cafes, and everyone has their opinion on the issue. It is a theme that challenges and affects all generations, because it raises deep questions about our future. Then, AI is an excellent narrative lever to confront different visions of the world. One of the major tensions around this technology lies in the discrepancy between those who naturally adopt it and those who look at it with skepticism. This generational shock is a gold mine for playwrights, which can draw funny and touching situations. Finally, artificial intelligence in the theater makes it possible to open debates, without being too didactic. Through a comedy, a drama or a satirical piece, she pushes the spectator to ask questions without him having the impression of attending a conference. It is this subtle balance between entertainment and reflection that makes these shows so relevant. "Ados.com: Artificial Intelligence", a generational comedy not to miss a perfect example of the way in which AI can be exploited in the theater is the new play "Ados.com: Artificial Intelligence", carried by Crazy. This show stages Kevin and his mother, already known to the public thanks to the success of Ados.com. In this new adventure, they find themselves faced with new daily situations: becoming a rapper, managing homework, learning to drive ... But above all, they must deal with new technologies that invade their daily lives. If the title refers to AI, it is not so much to talk about robots as to illustrate the misunderstandings between generations. Artificial intelligence becomes a common thread here to approach universal themes with humor: how do young people perceive technology? Why do parents sometimes find it difficult to keep pace? And above all, can we still understand each other in the digital age? Directed by Jean-Baptiste Mazoyer, and interpreted by Seb Mattia and Isabelle Viranin, the show plays on the contrast between the mother, overwhelmed by new digital uses, and her son, completely immersed in this connected world. Between misunderstandings and tasty dialogues, the play promises bursts of laughter and a beautiful dose of reflection on our relationship to technology. AI and theater, a promising duo. A show on artificial intelligence can be an exciting subject to approach, not so much for its technological feat as for the questions it arouses. Through shows like "Ados.com: artificial intelligence", it becomes a way to talk about our time, our doubts and our hopes. Between laughter and awareness, these pieces remind us that, despite the omnipresence of machines, it is always the human who tells the best stories.
