Laurent Gerra se met à table

Laurent Gerra returns to the stage with Se met à table, a routine crafted for his signature strengths: imitation and satire. On stage, the comedian dissects current events and lines up a gallery of portraits in which politicians, singers and figures from television and film parade before the audience. Voices, tics, postures: Gerra captures the cues, distils the telling detail and slips his characters from one sketch to the next, between pastiches and songs.

The approach is direct, the pace brisk, and the writing plays with the codes of cabaret and revue. Orators at the microphone, vibrato‑rich idols, hurried hosts, garrulous columnists: the range is wide and constantly reinvented according to the mood of the moment. No unnecessary effects — rather a precise mechanism in which current events serve as raw material, shaped in the heat of the moment and put into perspective through parody.

Meet him on 2 April 2027 at the Parc des expositions – Destination Angers, in Angers, for an evening in which Gerra unveils his menu of the day: well‑aimed barbs, musical nods and a keen sense of tempo. You come for the voices; you stay for the writing and his ease on stage.
