Julien Santini

On June 27, 2026 at the Théâtre de la Gaîté Montparnasse in Paris, Julien Santini presents a stand-up act that likes to stray from the beaten path. A French comedian, he cultivates a taste for the absurd and blends anecdotes and improvisation with his own off‑kilter sensibility. On stage he seizes the small details of everyday life, shifts pace, plays with silences and can turn an innocuous remark into an obsessive refrain. His way of sliding from one story to another without warning creates a shifting thread in which written material and spontaneity answer one another seamlessly.

Santini talks about what he sees and what he lives, and brings the audience along on his digressions with a relaxed presence and precise timing. He allows himself detours, bounces off a look, a word, or a reaction, and keeps a comic distance that maintains a constant sense of misalignment. The writing stays simple, the form stripped back, the energy direct. An 80‑minute show that traces a line between stand‑up and absurd humour, for an evening in which you follow his twists with curiosity, up close to his world.
