I had planned so many things for the future. It seemed like ages away. I really thought I had tons of time, but apparently not so much. I think my future self ghosted me… Or maybe he just went to buy cigarettes.

A good man is a virtue. A good woman… that’s immediately more complicated. Seven years after “Mytho,” her show about Greek mythology directed by Jarry, Ariane Brodier returns with “Bonne,” a biting one-woman show directed by Kevin Levy. In it, she humorously and tenderly dismantles all the labels we stick on women: good mother, good friend, good at everything, good for marriage… or just “good”? In this more personal show, Ariane reveals herself, sharing her contradictions, her experiences, and her vulnerabilities too—always with self-deprecation and candor.
What if we stopped trying to be good at everything and simply be ourselves?
A frank, funny, touching, and liberating show.

Laughter, rhythm, pleasure… life itself! Nadim has run 11 businesses in 11 years, faced 3 labor court cases, and fled Lebanon at age 2, but that’s not necessarily what he talks about on stage. Unpredictable and spontaneous, he lets himself be guided by the moment and the energy of his audience. His show, without a fixed plot, blends realism, absurdity, and surrealism with lightness and creativity. With boundless energy, inspired improvisations, and a sharp wit, he sweeps you away into a joyful and delirious interlude. Every night can be different, for an experience that’s always surprising and hilarious.
