Laurent Gerra se met à table

Laurent Gerra returns with Laurent Gerra se met à table, his new show, at Ekinox in Bourg-en-Bresse on April 28, 2027. Born in the town, the comedian and impressionist continues his mirror play with the times and lines up a gallery of voices we know by heart. On stage he slips from one timbre to another and brings politicians, singers, and figures from television and film back to life, without forgetting the social issues that animate current debates.

On the menu is a review of the news filtered through his caricature, alternating sketches, impressions and parody songs. Gerra works the details, twists speech tics, and repurposes refrains and punchlines to compose an aural portrait of our collective obsessions. The tone is satirical and the pace brisk, with that cabaret flair that runs through his career. One finds his precision as an imitator, his razor‑sharp delivery and that ability to flip a scene in the blink of an eye, simply by changing his voice. A show tailored for those who enjoy seeing current events transformed into a theatre of characters.
