Caroline Vigneaux

Caroline Vigneaux is a comedian, actress and former lawyer, known for trading her lawyer’s gown for the stage. After several years practicing at the Paris Bar, she decided to devote herself fully to comedy. Her first show, Caroline Vigneaux quitte la robe, met with wide success by blending courtroom anecdotes, social satire and reflections on the place of women in society. With an incisive, intelligent and engaged style, she tackles subjects such as sexism, education, justice and gender stereotypes without taboo — all delivered with sharp humour and strong oratory. Her next production, Caroline Vigneaux croque la pomme, continues this approach by combining history, feminism and comedy. She has also distinguished herself on television and in film, confirming her artistic versatility. Committed, brilliant and funny, she is one of the prominent voices of contemporary French humour.
