Anthony Kavanagh « Jet Lag »

Anthony Kavanagh presents Jet Lag, his new stand-up show, on March 18, 2027 at the Théâtre de la Gaîté Montparnasse in Paris. Born in Quebec, he is a comedian, actor and singer who has developed a distinctive stage signature where Quebec-style stand-up, improvisation, impressions and a keen sense of rhythm intertwine. With Jet Lag, he plays on the disjunctions that have always accompanied him: travel, culture shocks, language that slips from one accent to another, and life in an always-connected world. He draws on his experiences between Montréal and Paris to observe relationships, contemporary society and our contradictions with a candor that suits him well.

On stage, Anthony Kavanagh alternates characters, anecdotes and musical asides without losing the thread of a lively narrative. His background as an actor and voice actor also informs his performance, which is precise and fully embodied. Jet Lag sits within the lineage of his standout shows, refocusing on what matters: a microphone, a presence, and his way of taking the audience on a journey where humor acts as a compass. Meet him at the Gaîté Montparnasse for a very personal stopover.
