Arnaud Tsamere « Tous contraints »

Arnaud Tsamere returns with Tous contraints. After Two Weddings and a Funeral, his Cyrano de Bergerac and the adventure of the Trio, he thought he would slow down. Except that a contract he signed with Jérémy Ferrari forces him to get back on stage alone in 2026/2027, under penalty of a €27.2 million fine. This is the starting point for a new one-man show in which the comedian takes that notion of being “forced” at its word and uses it as a through-line: what do you do when you no longer really have a choice, but still feel like going for it?

On stage, Tsamere plays with the absurdity that defines him, stretches situations, twists the clauses, and sketches the behind-the-scenes of a comeback and a tour that must happen at all costs. He juggles the contract, the ego, the fear of failing and his unabashed bad faith, turning paperwork into material for sketches and pressure into a driving force for performance. A solo show that promises a tilted look at freedom, obligation and the small compromises of the trade.
