Jarry - Bonhomme - Tournée

Jarry brings Bonhomme to our Lyon stage

We are thrilled to welcome Jarry and his new show Bonhomme to our stage in Lyon, where the comedian’s vibrant energy, quickfire improvisation, and big-hearted storytelling meet an audience known for its appetite for sharp, generous humor. From the moment the lights hit, expect a lively exchange rather than a one-way monologue: Jarry’s performances are built on instant connection, teasing out anecdotes from the room, riffing on local references, and weaving spontaneous interactions into the architecture of the evening. Bonhomme dives into the tender, sometimes chaotic, always hilarious territory Jarry knows best—identity, family, and the everyday theatre of being human—while amplifying themes that have marked his recent evolution as an artist and as a father. Our technical team will support this with agile lighting and crisp sound to match Jarry’s elastic physicality and rapid transitions, leaving space for the quiet moments to breathe and the explosive punchlines to land. In Lyon, where audiences prize wit with warmth, Bonhomme unfolds like a conversation—nimble, surprising, and gleefully alive.

Current artistic momentum: TV, tours, and the playful Jarry universe

Bonhomme arrives at a moment when Jarry’s profile has never felt more dynamic. Recently seen on national TV as host of Tout le monde veut prendre sa place and as a familiar investigator face on Mask Singer, he has also fronted prime-time formats such as Good Singers and Game of Talents, confirming his knack for reading a room, steering chaos with a smile, and turning unscripted moments into appointment viewing. On stage, Bonhomme builds on the momentum of his previous hits Atypique and Titre, but with a new depth of perspective: Jarry mines parenthood, friendship, and the codes of contemporary masculinity with the curiosity of a storyteller who keeps finding fresh angles. Fans will recognize his signature cascade of characters, agile voice work, and mischievous crowd play, but they’ll also find a show that breathes—one that balances elastic comedy with reflective beats that linger just long enough to sharpen the next laugh. Across France, the tournée has been greeted as both a celebration of Jarry’s comic maturity and a joyous reminder of his improviser’s soul.

For our Lyon audience, Bonhomme offers more than a headline; it’s the occasion to experience Jarry’s art in full contact. He is known to reconfigure bits on the fly, incorporate audience stories into his narrative spine, and turn a single unexpected remark in the third row into a running thread that ties the evening together. That live-wire quality is where our room and his craft meet best: the intimacy allows for the playful confessional tone he favors, while the scale welcomes his theatrical flourishes and broad physical comedy. Expect references to his life on tour, nods to recent TV adventures from Tout le monde veut prendre sa place to Mask Singer, and those mischievous asides that make each city feel singled out. Arrive ready for momentum—the kind that grows from the foyer into the first blackout, swells during the big set pieces, and settles into a glow as the final applause stretches on. Bonhomme in Lyon promises a night that feels tailor-made: unmistakably Jarry, in the here and now.
