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

At Le Boui-Boui, we love nights when the room turns into a time machine, and that’s exactly what happens when Félix Le Braz steps on our stage with Flashback Generation VHS. In our intimate Lyon setting—where the audience sits close enough to catch every wink, callback, and whispered aside—his nostalgia-fueled comedy feels tailor-made. The show is a brisk, spirited tour through the analog rites of passage that shaped a generation: the magic of video clubs, the family camcorder perched on a wobbly tripod, the ritual of pressing “record” at the perfect moment, and the painstaking art of tracking the snow off a worn cassette. Félix plays with the texture of memory—its fuzz, its warmth, its mischievous jump cuts—building a playful dialogue with spectators who bring their own 80s and 90s references to the party. At Le Boui-Boui, that exchange becomes electric. Our tight room amplifies his quick-fire transitions from observational stand-up to character beats and back again, so that every VHS-era detail he resurrects lands with both humor and heart.

Right now with Félix Le Braz: fresh material, sharper punchlines

Hosting Flashback Generation VHS at Le Boui-Boui also means we get Félix Le Braz at a moment of undeniable creative momentum. The set he’s bringing to our stage has been sharpened by recent club work and enriched by a new batch of bits that double down on his love of lo-fi culture. In recent months, he has been premiering compact sketches that now punctuate the show—titles like “Auto-Rewind,” “Tracking Lines,” “Videoclub Wars,” and “Pause–Record–Play” have become mini fan-favorites with our audiences, each one homing in on a different slice of analog life: the obsessive rewinder in every friend group, the family dispute over who taped over what, or the smug clerk at the neighborhood video store who knew your taste a little too well. These fresh pieces fold neatly into the backbone of Flashback Generation VHS, lifting the evening’s rhythm and giving Félix room to flex both his storycraft and his knack for physical punchlines. If you’ve seen him before, expect new layers and sharper tags; if you’re discovering him here, you’ll catch a comedian in full swing, updating his material in real time with the crowd as his compass.

On our Le Boui-Boui stage, Flashback Generation VHS plays like a live mixtape. Félix stitches together riffs about CRT glow, schoolyard hype around the latest tape, and the peculiar social etiquette of lending a cassette to a neighbor you weren’t sure you trusted. He segues into playful audience interaction—an impromptu “rewind challenge,” a quickfire quiz on theme tunes, a cheeky guess-the-movie-from-the-tracking-noise bit—that pulls the room into his rhythm and makes the laughter communal. We lean into the show’s mood with our close, cabaret-style layout, where every reaction is part of the performance and the comedic timing feels impossibly crisp. What resonates most is Félix’s big-hearted angle: he’s not just poking fun at an era; he’s celebrating the patience, the rituals, and the shared language of pop culture that sparked friendships long before algorithms did. For a Lyon night out, it’s the sweet spot between smart stand-up and pure crowd joy—familiar, surprising, and irresistibly analog at every turn.
