Flashback Generation VHS at Le Boui-Boui: a night built for our stage

At Le Boui-Boui, we relish performances that feel handcrafted for the intimacy of our room, and Flashback Generation VHS is precisely that kind of show. Félix Le Braz arrives with a nostalgic, razor-sharp hour that taps into the clunky charm of cassettes, the ritual of rewinding, and the giddy anticipation of a Friday night at the video store—all filtered through the quick wit of contemporary stand-up. From the vantage point of our stage team, his rhythm is about immediacy: agile crowd work, whip-smart callbacks, and a storyteller’s instinct for the small, revealing detail. The room’s close quarters turn each aside, each change of tone, into shared mischief between performer and audience. Expect sly pop-culture references, VHS-era sound cues, and the kind of visual tags that land differently when you’re only a few feet away from the punchline. For Lyon’s comedy regulars who love a show that’s intimate, interactive, and undeniably warm, this is the perfect match for our venue’s personality.

Félix Le Braz, now

Part of the thrill for us at Le Boui-Boui is welcoming Félix Le Braz at a moment when his momentum feels unmistakable. He’s honed a new hour that speaks to multiple generations—those who remember tracking lines on tapes and those discovering the analog mythos through retro filters and secondhand consoles. Audiences who keep up with recent comedy programs like LOL: Qui rit, sort!, Le Late avec Alain Chabat, Fridge Comedy Club, Hot Ones France, or the radio staple Rire & Chansons – 1 heure de rire will recognize the current energy in French stand-up that Félix channels so naturally: brisk, conversational, and packed with references that click fast. While Flashback Generation VHS is the headline, his artistic life is clearly broader than one set; he’s active, present, and evolving through short-form bits, live refinements, and a dialogue with fans that continues long after the curtain call. From our seats in the wings, that agility is precisely what lights up a room like ours—every beat feels alive and in the moment.

What can you expect when the lights go down at Le Boui-Boui? A brisk, story-forward performance where Félix Le Braz toggles between personal memory and collective nostalgia—those universal snapshots of sleepovers, taped-over cartoons, tracking dials, and the eternal debate about who forgot to rewind. Our technical team loves how the show plays with texture: the faint hiss of a tape, a retro sting to set up a bit, a visual cue that flashes you back to an era of clamshell cases and flickering CRT screens. In our compact space, these details land like secret handshakes, and the laughter gathers quickly—chemistry you can’t bottle. Félix keeps the pace tight, but never rushed, leaving just enough space for audience reactions to fold back into the narrative. It’s the kind of night where a throwaway aside can become the laugh you remember on the way home. If you crave stand-up that’s playful, precise, and built for connection, Flashback Generation VHS at Le Boui-Boui is where that connection happens—in real time, at arm’s length, and with a warm, analog glow.
