Anne Roumanoff « L'expérience de la vie »

Anne Roumanoff settles in at the Théâtre des Mathurins in Paris on April 12, 2026 with L’expérience de la vie, a chapter in which she questions what it means to “have experience”: to be a woman of experience or to remain in perpetual experimentation. With her sense of observation, she examines the major transformations of everyday life: new languages, new behaviors, new professions.

On stage she alternates between confidences and characters. We encounter an American coach who is an expert in couple relationships, fairy tales updated for the age of apps and algorithms, a poem addressed to influencers, and sharp commentary on political and social news. The tone is direct, sometimes piquant, never heavy, with that mix of distance and tenderness that is her trademark.

Between stand-up and sketches, Anne dismantles a few preconceived ideas, unsettles her own certainties, and has fun with our modern quirks. L’expérience de la vie is as much hers as it is ours, filtered through precise writing and a fluid performance, for a moment that speaks to both the curious and the regulars.
