Félix Le Braz brings Flashback: Génération VHS to Le Boui-Boui

At Le Boui-Boui, we are thrilled to welcome Félix Le Braz with his new show, Flashback: Génération VHS, a spirited love letter to those analog years when Friday nights meant video-club aisles, tape rewinding, and the ritual of “tracking” lines on the family TV. From our stage, where intimacy amplifies authenticity, Félix’s precision timing and generous audience interplay feel tailor-made for the room. He steers the crowd through a high-energy, memory-soaked rollercoaster, tapping into the tactile world of cassettes, clunky remotes, and pop-culture references that defined a generation. The show’s heartbeat is nostalgia, but its punchlines are purely contemporary: Félix uses the VHS era as a clever mirror for today’s dizzying feed-scrolling habits, contrasting slow-burn anticipation with instant streaming gratification. You’ll recognize the way he turns a throwaway detail—like the awkward family ritual of labeling tapes—into a full-blown comic set piece, transforming shared memories into surprising comedic payoffs. Our audience here in Lyon knows how to meet an artist halfway, and Félix meets them more than in the middle: he reads the room, riffs with the front rows, and laces the evening with playful call-backs that make the whole house feel like a conspiratorial friend. In a venue as cozy and sharp-eared as Le Boui-Boui, his craft shines; the beats land, the silences breathe, and the laughter builds in waves, exactly the kind of live electricity we love to host.

On-stage now, and artistically in full motion

As a performer, Félix Le Braz arrives at Le Boui-Boui in the thick of creative momentum. Flashback: Génération VHS is not just a themed hour; it’s the current expression of an artist refining his voice through touring, testing, and playful reinvention. He layers observational comedy with physicality and pitch-perfect character work, switching from the exasperated video-club clerk to the meticulous parent guarding a prized tape collection, all while inviting the audience into the joke’s architecture. We appreciate how he uses the room’s intimacy to push new angles, fine-tune rhythm, and sharpen tags, making each night feel like a fresh chapter. For audiences who track contemporary comedy, Félix’s recent stage work has been punctuated by nimble short-form pieces and live excerpts he’s been honing around the country, a sign of a comic who lives onstage and keeps his material warm between bigger dates. At Le Boui-Boui, that energy translates into an evening that’s tight yet alive, structured yet delightfully unpredictable. Expect riffs about the vulnerability of home-recorded treasures, the grand ceremony of pressing “REC,” and the collective panic of taping over a favorite film—undercut by the sly, modern twist of cloud backups and algorithmic suggestions. It’s a show with a big heart and a sharp edge, offering both belly laughs and a gentle nudge to remember what it meant when entertainment required patience, a little maintenance, and a lot of imagination. We’re proud to host Félix in this moment—an artist in stride, and a night you feel in the room first and remember long after.
