Félix Le Braz brings FlashBack Generation VHS to Le Boui-Boui

At Le Boui-Boui, we thrive on shows that transform our intimate stage into a world of its own, and Félix Le Braz achieves exactly that with FlashBack Generation VHS. From the moment the lights dim, the room becomes a time capsule: the hum of imagined CRT screens, the click-clack of phantom cassettes, and the collective memory of weekends spent in video clubs all come roaring back. Hosting this date in our cozy Lyon room lets the audience sit close enough to catch every raised eyebrow and perfectly timed pause as Félix navigates the analog chaos of childhood, the ritual of “Be kind, rewind,” and the family debates that raged around the living-room TV. His humor is warm, quick, and detailed, painting scenes that feel both personal and universal—whether you grew up recording cartoons on long-play cassettes or discovered the VHS era through your parents’ dusty tapes. As a venue dedicated to live comedy, we love how this show makes the entire audience part of a shared memory, where a throwaway jingle or a brand-name drop instantly triggers laughter and recognition.

FlashBack Generation VHS is not nostalgia for nostalgia’s sake; it’s a smart, high-energy ride that holds up a mirror to the present. Félix contrasts the slow, tactile pleasures of rewinding with today’s swipe-and-skip culture, turning the comparison into a cascade of jokes and knowing asides. On our stage, he riffs effortlessly on the strange romance of tracking lines, the terror of taping over a cherished concert, and the seismic moment when a family finally bought a second remote control. He also plays with the pop-culture bridge between then and now—sketches that nod to TV and streaming phenomena keep the show current. Audiences at Le Boui-Boui have delighted in the way he winks at recent programs like Top Chef, HPI, The Voice, and Drag Race France, sliding these contemporary touchpoints into analog setups that heighten the punchlines. The effect is both affectionate and incisive: he celebrates how far we’ve come while proving that the mechanics of laughter—build-up, surprise, and shared references—remain timeless. In our intimate room, those references ripple instantly from one row to the next, creating a community spirit you can feel.

The pacing is brisk yet relaxed, allowing room for Félix to improvise around the room’s reactions, whether he’s teasing the front row about their first console or polling the back on who still remembers the tracking button. This season, his momentum is unmistakable: the word of mouth around the show keeps building, and each performance at Le Boui-Boui adds new layers as he fine-tunes beats, sharpens tags, and experiments with transitions that make the final third surge.
