Fanny Simon - Mais Que Vont Dire Les Voisins ?

At Le Boui-Boui: Fanny Simon – Mais que vont dire les voisins

From our stage at Le Boui-Boui, we love nothing more than handing the microphone to an artist whose voice lands close to home—sometimes literally. That is precisely why Fanny Simon brings Mais que vont dire les voisins to our intimate room: a one-woman carousel of everyday catastrophes, whispered judgments through thin walls, and the funny little rituals that keep us civil with the people on the other side of the landing. In our low-lit, close-up setting, her storytelling sharpens into a confessional rhythm, inviting you to lean in as if you were catching up with a friend in the stairwell. The show thrives on the proximity our venue offers: quick glances, raised eyebrows, and the collective gasp when a secret slips out. Lyon audiences read the unspoken; Fanny plays with it, folding neighborhood etiquette, family codes, and social pressure into a cracking hour that mixes sharp punchlines with a gently provocative warmth. We’re ready to host the murmur, the laughter, and the “I’ve been there”s that ripple through the room every time she sketches the life of a building where everyone thinks they know best.

Artistic momentum, right now, on our stage

What excites us most about welcoming Fanny Simon at Le Boui-Boui is how current this material feels. The questions pulsing through Mais que vont dire les voisins—about image, conformity, and the art of keeping the peace—are exactly the ones our audiences bring to our door, and she gives them the bright, playful spin they deserve. In today’s comedy landscape—think the fast-cut, observational energy you see on formats like Génération Paname or Soixante—Fanny’s tone sits at the sweet spot between confession and comeback. She unpacks modern etiquette like a DIY project: precise, surprising, and built to last. On our stage, she sequences tight, lived-in bits—listen for the recurring beats she nicknames Le Palier, La Voisine du 3e, and La Réunion de Copro, playful anchors in a night that moves from whispered hallway drama to shared, cathartic laughter. Her current run has the urgency of fresh writing and the polish of a voice that knows where to pause, when to twist, and how to let a silence bloom into a punchline. It reads as new without feeling experimental, confident without losing the charming sense that anything could happen in the next minute.

Because Le Boui-Boui was built for proximity, we’ve tuned the evening to highlight the full arc of Fanny’s performance. Expect agile crowd work—the kind that turns a nod or a raised hand into a miniature scene—balanced with the narrative drive that keeps the room leaning forward. With Mais que vont dire les voisins, the building becomes a character, and the audience becomes the residents’ committee: you’ll weigh in on the politics of a shared laundry room, the mystery of midnight vacuuming, and the delicate theater of saying hello when you really want to say something else. The show also looks outward: how we behave online versus on the landing, how rumors travel faster than elevator doors, and how identity can be rewritten with a single “Bonjour” in the wrong tone. Our team has set the room to amplify the storytelling—tight sightlines, a pace that lets punchlines breathe—and we’re delighted to see how Fanny uses the space: quick pivots, crisp character work, and that conspiratorial aside that pulls the back row into the front. If you’ve been craving a night that feels both personal and communal, this date at Le Boui-Boui is your perfect match: a chance to catch an artist in motion, right now, bringing a brand-new neighborhood of ideas to life in front of your eyes.
