Le Boui-Boui welcomes Felix Le Braz with FLASHBACK GENERATION VHS

At Le Boui-Boui, we thrive on intimate, high-energy encounters between artists and audiences, and that is exactly why we are thrilled to host Felix Le Braz for FLASHBACK GENERATION VHS. Our room was designed for comedy that relies on proximity, timing, and shared references, and this show leans into all three. Felix brings the tactile joy of the analog era onto our stage—think clunky remote controls, Friday-night video-club rituals, and that unmistakable tape hiss—then spins it into sharp observational comedy about how we live now. The result is a warm, fast-paced evening in which nostalgia is not just a theme, but a tool: a way to compare the patient ritual of rewinding with the swipe-and-scroll age, or the communal thrill of a cassette night with today’s hyper-personalized algorithmic bubbles. From the moment the pre-show soundscape settles and the lights skim the brickwork, Le Boui-Boui becomes a time capsule and a mirror, giving Felix the perfect canvas for crowd work, call-backs, and improv as he maps analog memories onto digital habits.

Current momentum and what you’ll experience on our stage

Felix arrives at Le Boui-Boui with fresh material honed in clubs and on the road, and audiences can feel that live-wire confidence the instant he steps to the mic. To help you navigate the ride without spoiling the punchlines, our team has tagged several recurring beats in his new hour with playful in-house nicknames: Play/Rec takes a mischievous look at the rituals of recording over family tapes; Tracking Lines riffs on glitchy images and how our minds “auto-correct” fuzzy memories; Head Cleaner turns those little blue cassettes into a metaphor for mental resets; Be Kind Rewind celebrates communal etiquette with a modern twist; and Channel 3/AV mines the awkward magic of setting up a living-room cinema. These labels aren’t official credits—they’re signposts for the vibe of the night. What stands out is Felix’s knack for shifting from tight, written bits into responsive crowd moments, using the VHS motif as a springboard to talk about friendship, dating, identity, and how cultural touchstones mutate across generations. He makes the analog feel alive again, not as a museum piece, but as a comedic engine powering big, present-tense laughs.

In our space, the show’s rhythm breathes. Felix paces the boards with a storyteller’s ease, turning small physical details—the click of a plastic latch, the whirr of a spool—into sound effects and visual gags that land especially well in the close quarters of Le Boui-Boui. The room’s natural warmth helps him build rolling waves of laughter, and he leans into that intimacy to exchange quick asides with the front rows and weave spontaneous riffs back into the core narrative. Expect a set that rewards attentiveness with layered call-backs and clever misdirections, and an atmosphere that bridges generations: seasoned comedy-goers relishing inside references alongside first-timers discovering why analog nostalgia is such potent live material. If you’ve been following Felix’s recent digital shorts and club work, you’ll recognize the sharper, more cinematic pacing he’s been exploring; if you’re meeting him for the first time, FLASHBACK GENERATION VHS is an ideal entry point—playful, generous, and meticulously constructed for maximum impact in a room like ours. At Le Boui-Boui, we’re proud to offer the vantage where every raised eyebrow, every timing beat, and every perfectly timed silence becomes part of the joke you came to share.
