Sebastian Marx

Born in New York and based in Paris for many years, Sebastian Marx has built a career as a comedian and stand-up performer bridging American culture and French society. He has been noticed on café‑théâtre stages and in comedy clubs for a comedy grounded in everyday observation, the gap between French and Anglo‑Saxon codes, and language‑based misunderstandings. Performing in both French and English, he crafts one‑man shows centered on his experience as an expatriate, urban life, social relations and bureaucracy, with a direct style derived from New York stand‑up and adapted for francophone audiences. Regularly appearing on Parisian stages and touring across France, he also shares his work through videos, columns and short online formats, extending his stage tone on the web. This dual position—between American stand‑up and French situational humor—has made Sebastian Marx a recognised figure on bilingual stages where international audiences and curious francophone spectators meet.
