Patson dans Baltazar

Patson returns with Baltazar, his new stand-up, on April 17, 2026 at the République in Paris. Brought to prominence by the first season of the Jamel Comedy Club, the Ivorian-born comedian sticks to a clean, stripped-back approach: one mic, one stage, and a direct voice that hits where it tickles. His playground is everyday life and its frictions—the back-and-forth between Africa, the Antilles and France, street codes and accents that go off-kilter. He moves from one anecdote to another with a very conversational flow, fed by streetwise patter, favoring direct address to the audience and improvisation that keeps the pace brisk.

In Baltazar you’ll find his touchstones: rapid-fire gags, a complicit, familiar “you,” and a talent for sketching characters in two lines. “Yes papa,” nimble footwork—now that’s a treat: sharp punchlines, expressive gestures, asides—everything serves a narrative in motion, with no set and no filter. Patson digs into small contradictions, cultural misunderstandings, and families that love and try to find themselves, turning them into short, punchy scenes. It’s a high-energy, American-style stand-up rooted in Paris and its blends, where he gives himself fully while keeping his verve intact.
