Thomas Wiesel

Swiss comedian Thomas Wiesel returns with his fifth solo show, Société écrans, a sharp, observational set that dissects our screen addiction across generations. He confesses spending nearly eight hours a day under blue light and turns his own digital habits into comic material—searches that spiral, headline overload and endless sports clips. Between fake news, TikTok dances and artificial intelligence, Wiesel mixes irony and self-mockery to expose modern anxieties, delivering a pointed, fast-paced performance with assured timing.
