Fabrice Eboué - Nouveau Spectacle - Tournée

Fabrice Eboué – Nouveau spectacle – Tournée at L'Amphithéâtre 3000

At L'Amphithéâtre 3000, we are delighted to welcome Fabrice Eboué with his Nouveau spectacle, a much-anticipated stop on his Tournée that brings one of France’s most incisive voices to our Lyon stage. From the vantage point of our venue, what makes this date special is not only the scale of our room and its crystalline acoustics, but the way Eboué’s razor-sharp rhythm and audience interplay come alive in a setting designed for clarity and proximity. His trajectory speaks for itself: after the breakthrough of Fabrice Eboué, levez-vous! and the triumphant momentum of Plus rien à perdre, he has continued to refine a stand-up style that is both conversational and cutting, a blend of social observation and mischievous provocation. Beyond the stage, his filmmaking with Coexister and the cult favorite Barbaque cemented his reputation as a storyteller who relishes uncomfortable truths while keeping the laughs front and center. In recent seasons, his media appearances on Quotidien, Clique, and C à vous have offered glimpses of the themes and tones he now expands on in this new set—topical, unsentimental, and delivered with the timing of an archer hitting bullseye after bullseye.

A sharp, fearless evening in Lyon

Our audience at L'Amphithéâtre 3000 can expect the hallmarks of Eboué’s stagecraft: a direct line to current debates, jokes that swing from intimate confession to panoramic social satire, and the kind of crowd sparring that works best in a room built for immediacy. In the Nouveau spectacle, he pushes further into the tensions of our era—public shaming and digital outrage, the new grammar of identity, the hypocrisies of eco-virtue, and the comic chaos of relationships and parenthood—without abandoning the playful swagger that made earlier hours so quotable. Lyon’s big-room energy meets his quicksilver pacing here, as our sightlines and sound design keep every aside, callback, and under-the-breath punchline legible from stalls to balcony. The material is lean and buoyant; the transitions are choreographed with a filmmaker’s eye; and the improvisations—those blink-and-you-miss-it glances toward a latecomer or a chatty row—are magnified by the venue’s stage geometry. If you’ve caught him riffing on Quotidien or trading barbs on Clique, you’ll recognize the same unflinching tone—only here, stretched over a full evening, the arguments build, the reversals multiply, and the laughter lands in rolling waves.

For us as hosts, what stands out about this Tournée is the unmistakable sense of an artist in full stride. Fabrice Eboué’s recent cycle—onstage momentum with the Nouveau spectacle and continued cultural footprint after Barbaque—suggests a writer-performer who likes to test his ideas in front of living, breathing audiences, then drive them to their sharpest form. That laboratory spirit is why a date at L'Amphithéâtre 3000 matters: the room lets subtlety travel, rewards timing, and encourages the sort of risk-taking that defines his best work, from Fabrice Eboué, levez-vous! to Plus rien à perdre. Lyon’s public is famously alert to subtext and allergic to complacency, two traits that dovetail perfectly with Eboué’s taste for provocation without sermon. Expect fresh angles on the week’s headlines, callbacks to earlier bits that snap into new focus, and the topical elasticity of a comic who keeps a conversation going beyond the curtain call. We’re ready to frame every beat with the precision it deserves, so that each silence, gasp, and roar contributes to the living document of this night—one more milestone on a Tournée that keeps gathering speed.
