Olivier de Benoist « Le droit au bonheur »

Olivier de Benoist returns with a show designed for those juggling the pursuit of happiness and the realities of everyday life. With his well-honed self-deprecating humor, he explains how, in searching for bliss, he mostly found a family… and everything that comes with it. Through the eyes of a sometimes overwhelmed father and partner, he dissects coupledom, children, compromises, small acts of cowardice and the grand principles that get quietly scaled back. His trademark: a knack for a crisp line, precise timing and a way of driving ideas to the absurd without ever losing the thread. He turns serenity into a moving target, fends off domestic chaos with jokes, and cheekily reminds us that, to live happily, you may need to shelter yourself a little… or even keep your distance.

On 11 April 2026 he will take the stage at Espace Vergèze, in Vergèze. An evening where you’ll recognise his writing, his timing and his way of telling our contradictions with a lightness that lands, without delivering a final moral—just the desire to laugh about it.
