Anthony Bechtatou - Faites Du Bruit

Faites du Bruit at Le Boui-Boui

At Le Boui-Boui in Lyon, we live for those nights when the room becomes an instrument, when the laughter ricochets from the first row to the last, and when a performer uses rhythm as much as wit to pull everyone together. That is precisely the promise of Anthony Bechtatou with Faites du Bruit: a high-energy hour built on the crackle of crowd connection, the pulse of spontaneous reactions, and the musicality of language itself. Our intimate stage is designed for this kind of proximity, where you can catch every nuance of a facial expression and every micro-beat of a pause. Anthony’s style thrives on that closeness. He weaves quick-fire observations into playful call-and-response, turning the audience into a chorus and the room into a living metronome. The title is a rallying cry, and it fits our space perfectly: the laughter here doesn’t just echo—it becomes part of the show’s score. Expect nimble crowd work, fast switches between narratives, and a performance that treats timing like percussion, without losing the heart and humanity that give great stand-up its emotional punch.

Anthony Bechtatou, now, and what to expect on our stage

Anthony Bechtatou arrives at Le Boui-Boui with a momentum that feels unmistakably current, the kind that has grown as audiences seek stand-up that feels live, unfiltered, and in the moment. If your recent watchlist includes crowd-favorite programs like LOL: Qui rit, sort!, Le Paname Comedy Club, Drôle, or Grosse Rigolade, you already speak the language of comedy that puts energy and presence first—where a sharp premise is only the beginning and the real magic happens in the exchange between artist and audience. In Faites du Bruit, Anthony leans into that exchange. He builds stories from the raw materials of everyday chaos—phones buzzing at the worst possible time, trains that test your patience, the strange symphony of city life—and reshapes them with a rhythmic logic that keeps each punchline dancing just ahead of the beat. He mixes conversational storytelling with staccato tagging, rides laughter waves instead of interrupting them, and uses silence as smartly as he uses volume. What makes his hour feel fresh is the balance: a craftsman’s command of structure paired with the spark of improvisation that our room loves to amplify. Those who like their stand-up alive and elastic will feel right at home.

From our side of the stage at Le Boui-Boui, we’re tailoring the experience so every seat feels close to the spark. The room’s warmth, the crispness of our mics, the focused lighting that frames the performer without crowding him—these details matter in a show like Faites du Bruit, where timing and texture are everything. We’re setting the conditions for an unapologetically live experience: laughter that rolls in waves, moments of pin-drop attention, and the kind of shared rhythm that lets the comic stretch, snap back, and pursue a joke to its most satisfying echo. Anthony’s hour is built to thrive in this environment. It’s a set that rewards attentiveness, playfulness, and a willingness to jump into the give-and-take. Whether you come alone, with friends, or as part of a crew that loves to sit close and react big, you’ll find that our intimate room magnifies every beat he throws into the space. Faites du Bruit is more than a title; it’s an invitation to be part of a living, laughing, responsive crowd—right here with us, where Lyon comes to hear comedy up close.
