Roland Magdane

Roland Magdane signs off his farewell tour with Clap de fin. A fixture of French comedy for fifty years, with a career on stage and on television, he turns this show into a letter addressed to his audience. It features his direct storytelling style, memories from the road, characters who have accompanied him, and a constant thread of self‑deprecation. He looks back on half a century of performing — from French venues to stages in Belgium, Switzerland, Quebec and the United States — with the wish to draw the curtain without denying what has always sustained him: the face‑to‑face encounter with the audience.

In Deauville, he will present Clap de fin on 14 March 2026 at the Théâtre du Casino Barrière Deauville. This date marks the final stage of a long journey, with the idea of passing the torch and finally allowing himself a break. It is an occasion to hear this open letter to those who have followed him, a mix of confidences, sketches and shared rapport. The evening is conceived as a sober, straightforward farewell, taking the time to measure the road travelled and the bond with a loyal public.
