Roland Magdane « Clap de fin »

On April 24, 2026 at Le Scarabée in Riorges, Roland Magdane presents Clap de Fin, the farewell tour that closes fifty years on stage. From the theatre hall to television sets, he has shaped a recognisable style: an observation of everyday life, a taste for burlesque and self-mockery, sustained by an effective sense of storytelling. We remember “Les Lettres,” the visit to the dentist or his dissection of couple life — moments in which he points out small quirks and the shifts of reality with precise timing.

With Clap de Fin, Magdane returns to the essentials: a microphone, characters, stories that echo one another, and that sharp eye on daily life. The show weaves together touring memories, nods to his signature sketches and new slices of life, in writing that alternates confidences and comic turns. A final chapter conceived as a direct encounter with the audience, intended to close an adventure begun in the late 1970s and to salute a career where stand-up, character work and situational comedy are intertwined.
