Julia Mevel - Ca Pop Pop Pop !

Espace Gerson welcomes Julia Mevel – Ça Pop Pop Pop

At Espace Gerson, we love nights that feel like discoveries and reunions at the same time, and Julia Mevel with Ça Pop Pop Pop promises exactly that kind of encounter. Our intimate room is built for comedians who thrive on timing, tension, and the quick current of shared laughter, and Julia’s stagecraft is tailor-made for this closeness: a brisk, bright rhythm, crisp turns of phrase, and a flair for surprise that keeps the room leaning forward. From the first beat, her title hints at a show that snaps, crackles, and bursts with ideas—pop culture as a mirror, small everyday rituals that become epic scenes, and a playful relationship with the audience that never loses its warmth. The Espace Gerson team has shaped the evening so that every seat catches the nuance—those tiny expressions, quick asides, and sly callbacks that let a one-woman show breathe—and Julia’s precision with the mic, the beats she leaves hanging, and the way she sweeps the room into a single reaction make this an especially kinetic stop in Lyon.

Artist spotlight and current buzz

Julia Mevel arrives with momentum and an appetite for the present tense: Ça Pop Pop Pop is the kind of set that feels written this week, filtered through a sharp memory and a pop sensibility that refuses to grow stale. She moves freely from digital life to family mythologies, from dating etiquette to work absurdities, threading her material with a mischievous musicality—tight, bright punchlines and elastic storytelling that stretch and snap back for maximum effect. Recent bits have become word-of-mouth signatures among comedy fans: Scroll Therapy, where your thumb becomes a character with its own agenda; Algorithme du cœur, a deadpan negotiation with the mysterious logic of modern romance; Popcorn Philosophy, a whirlwind riff on the life lessons smuggled into blockbusters; and Ringtone Trauma, a micro-epic about notification anxiety that lands with both sting and sweetness. Add Ghosting 2.0—equal parts confession and roast—and you get a portrait of a comic mind tuned to our collective bandwidth but anchored in old-school stage instincts. What excites us most, as a room, is how Julia shapes the rise and fall of the hour: she sets a trap with a throwaway line, lets it disappear, then springs it twenty minutes later with a callback that makes the whole set feel like a single, satisfying composition.

For this Lyon appearance at Espace Gerson, we’ve leaned into the live-wire energy that Julia favors. The proximity of our stage means she can pivot on a glance, flip from confiding to conspiratorial in a breath, and press every tiny ripple into laughter. Our technical crew has balanced the room for clarity and presence, so the quicksilver changes in tone—deadpan, mock-epic, faux-instructional—arrive intact, and her talent for audience interplay can breathe without losing momentum. If you’ve followed the buzz around Ça Pop Pop Pop, you know to expect an hour where the pop in the title is not just an aesthetic but a rhythm: short, sharp impacts, stitched into longer narrative arcs that reward attention. If you’re meeting Julia Mevel for the first time, our advice is simple—come ready to be surprised. She has a way of turning a casual aside into a running motif, and of folding the room’s reactions back into the show until the audience becomes a character in the story. That alchemy is why we’re proud to host her here: Espace Gerson is a place where comedy breathes, and tonight it breathes in sync with a performer who knows exactly how to make every second count.
