Laurie Peret - A Bientôt Quelque Part - Tournée

Laurie Peret on our Lyon stage

From our vantage point in Lyon, welcoming Laurie Peret with A bientôt quelque part is the kind of moment that energizes an entire season. We prepare our stage not just for a stand-up set, but for a singular, piano-driven one-woman show where melody and punchline collide. Those who follow the vibrancy of contemporary French comedy—often spotlighted on programs such as Quotidien, Clique, or Rire & Chansons—will recognize the mischievous, emotionally precise tone that has made Laurie a favorite far beyond the comedy circuit. In our hall, her presence invites an intimate connection: a spotlight, a keyboard, and the thrill of material that lands with the immediacy of a confessional and the craftsmanship of a cabaret number. It is a homecoming of sorts for audiences who relish stories of everyday life turned inside out by an artist whose timing is as musical as it is comic, and whose sense of rhythm keeps laughter dancing in step with melody.

A bientôt quelque part — Tournée

A bientôt quelque part — Tournée arrives in Lyon as a living, breathing journey through new songs, sharpened anecdotes, and the tightrope walk between tenderness and irreverence that Laurie Peret commands so well. At the piano, she threads miniatures of life—dating with expectations set hilariously off-kilter, parenting with a wink to chaos, work-life balancing acts that teeter and soar—into a cohesive score of comedic vignettes. She molds silence and applause with a musician’s ear, letting a refrain hang just long enough for the next punchline to bloom. The show’s architecture is agile: short numbers escalate into theatrical crescendos; audience reactions feed into reprises; and a final tableau reassembles the evening’s themes with cheeky elegance. In Lyon, this responsiveness is everything: we see how her repertoire adapts, how a throwaway aside becomes a running gag, and how the piano itself turns into a co-conspirator. It’s a format that honors the concert experience while delivering the velocity of stand-up.

Artistically, Laurie Peret’s current momentum feels unmistakable. A bientôt quelque part extends her touring footprint while allowing her to unveil fresh bits and songs in real time, in step with the conversations her audience is having right now. Our team has watched her expand on the intimate, diaristic style that first drew fans to her musical sketches, now backed by a performer’s assurance that invites the room to lean in and participate. In Lyon, that participatory spark matters: the city’s appetite for quick-witted, emotionally candid performance means each stop becomes a laboratory where new refrains, unexpected codas, and spontaneous call-and-response can take flight. For those who track the pulse of comedy through fixtures like Quotidien, Clique, or Rire & Chansons, Laurie’s tour signals how French humor continues to fuse songcraft, social observation, and theatrical verve. On our stage, A bientôt quelque part — Tournée is not merely a date on the calendar; it is an evolving chapter in an artist’s trajectory, a space where laughter, music, and shared stories meet the bright acoustics and attentive hush that only a Lyon night can provide.
