Olivier de Benoist

After two shows where he delighted his audience with (falsely) misogynistic reflections, Olivier de Benoist returns to the stage, this time decided not to attack women anymore. Finally, less than usual ... With 0/40 years old, where he tells his life from birth to today, the humorist wanted to abandon the macho character who had made his success. But for lack of common thread and inventive staging, the show turns out to be wobbly. Not bad, certainly, with even a few good moments, but not convincing either. If the initiative was laudable, the result is likely to satisfy neither the frustrated fans of not finding everything they liked nor those who wanted to discover Olivier de Benoist in another register. Recorded in La Halle aux vins, parc des exposition, Colmar.

Once upon a time... "The other day..." is his catchphrase, his trademark: the expression that introduces each of his sketches. A true storyteller of everyday life, Olivier de Benoist recounts with verve and finesse his life experiences inspired by his family, the world of work, society... all of which are inexhaustible sources of jokes and anecdotes with highly laughable potential. With this man who defines himself as a popular comedian with a script, routine always turns into an adventure novel. A one-man show designed especially for Comédie+, so you can say... "The other day, I laughed so hard!" Recorded on June 25, 2025, at the Théâtre des Sources in Saint-Amand-les-Eaux, in the Hauts-de-France region, for the benefit of the Canal+ Group's Comédie+ channel.
