Double Jeu — Improv Show

Booking Required

Organised by Alliance Créative, Double Jeu is an improvisation format built on strategy and subtle manipulation: each performer secretly receives a mission to coax a partner into a specific action without being noticed. Scenes cascade into comic chaos where every line conceals an intention, and performers juggle personal objectives against shifting group dynamics. The atmosphere alternates between playful mischief and razor-sharp timing, producing surprising twists and communal laughter.

In French.
