Jean-luc Lemoine - Liquidation ( Tournée )

Jean-Luc Lemoine at THEATRE A L'OUEST - LYON

At THEATRE A L'OUEST - LYON, we are thrilled to welcome Jean-Luc Lemoine with Liquidation tournée, a new live chapter from one of France’s sharpest comic observers. From our perspective as a stage attuned to timing, acoustics, and audience energy, Lemoine’s minimalist precision and quietly devastating punchlines are a perfect fit for our room. This is the kind of show built for a close exchange with spectators: an elegant blend of laid-back charm, sly provocation, and that trademark deadpan that made his interventions in Les questions en 4/3 so unforgettable. Expect a set that feels immediate and alive, with the audience at the heart of the moment—Lemoine has a way of turning a single raised eyebrow into a full-blown narrative, and our intimate sightlines and warm ambiance will let every nuance land. As host, we prepare the space; as artist, he calibrates the rhythm. Together, we aim for a night where laughter rolls in waves and the afterglow lasts long after the curtain call.

What to expect from Liquidation tournée

Liquidation brings Lemoine’s lucid look at the times we’re living through, delivered with the understatement that is his signature. From our vantage point, the show feels like a playful inventory: he takes stock of habits, hypocrisies, algorithms, and all the tiny negotiations we make with ourselves, then tags them with price-gun precision—some marked down, others priceless. Long-time fans will recognize the forensic calm he used to great effect in Touche Pas à Mon Poste!, and the gentle mischief honed on Les Grosses Têtes, now distilled into a lean, modern stand-up form. He toys with silence as much as with punchlines, letting the room breathe before he slips in the line that flips the scene on its head. In our theatre, those micro-beats matter; you’ll hear the hush, the chuckle, and the burst of laughter in crisp succession. It’s a show that rewards attention, but never demands it—Lemoine invites, invites again, and then, with a disarming aside, confides.

Beyond the stage, the artist’s current trajectory is remarkably vibrant. He continues to anchor weekend smiles on Samedi d’en rire, refining that rare balance of popular reach and crafted wit. His playful authority on Guess My Age demonstrated how he can guide a crowd through surprise and recognition, and elements of that gentle guidance reappear here as he steers the evening with understated confidence. Meanwhile, the spirit of Les questions en 4/3 lingers in his method: observing, reframing, and revealing what hides in plain sight. Hosting him at THEATRE A L'OUEST - LYON, we’ve shaped a setting where his observational edges meet the warmth of a live, curious audience; it’s an encounter that turns topical fragments into shared, resonant stories. Liquidation is not just material to be “consumed,” but an experience to be savored—the pleasure of hearing a thought land exactly where it should, the tension of a pause used just right, and the joyous release when an entire room recognizes itself in a single, perfectly weighted line.
