Sellig « Épisode 6 »

Sellig presents Episode 6 at the Kursaal in Besançon on April 15, 2026, a one-man show he wrote and directed. True to his sharp eye for everyday life, he probes those moments that seem insignificant yet end up throwing our days off track. He dissects ordinary situations to reveal what goes on behind the scenes, with a precision that makes the absurd surface without overplaying it. We follow him through his crash course in the kitchen, when theory collides with practice and every gesture takes on the air of an exam. He also recounts his “cinquantetroizaine,” that numbered milestone that stings a little more than mere fifty, with calm lucidity and a touch of self-mockery. Then he takes us to a Christmas of yesteryear at his well-known sister’s, in the presence of Bernard, the brother-in-law with unflappable calm, for a lively, no-frills family portrait. With his recurring characters, his eye for detail and a razor-sharp pace, Sellig transforms the ordinary into scenes that resonate, where everyone recognizes their little habits, irritations and contradictions.
