Elisabeth Buffet

On February 14, 2027, at the Comédie d'Aix - Spectacles - Cours de théâtre in Aix-en-Provence, Elisabeth Buffet presents Mes histoires de cœur. A French comedian known for her frankness, she unfolds on stage her romantic and sexual adventures, focusing especially on their hiccups—the awkward moments that creak and say something. Unvarnished, she turns her failures into intimate, confiding tales, halfway between stand-up and personal confession.

In this show she traces the thread of her stories, from Cap d’Agde to Pornic. Restaurants in the dark where nothing goes as planned, a spa getaway that turns absurd, improbable encounters: Buffet grabs each slip-up and dissects it. Dates that take unexpected turns, fantasies that fall flat, a chain of misunderstandings—everything is laid out in direct, precise language.

With a blunt eye and a healthy dose of self-mockery, she replays scenes in which we easily recognize ourselves, to let off steam and laugh at our emotional flaws. Mes histoires de cœur follows Elisabeth Buffet close to her favorite playground: our contradictions, our impulses, and all that sometimes goes wrong in our love lives.
