Le Duplex (tournée)

Le Duplex at Radiant-Bellevue

From our stage at Radiant-Bellevue, we are delighted to welcome Le Duplex, a tour that speaks directly to the pulse of live performance and the energy of an audience gathered in the Lyon area. As a venue, we witness nightly how a show takes shape in the room: the anticipation in the foyer, the first ripple of laughter, the shared rhythm between stage and seats. Le Duplex is built for that dynamic exchange. It is a tour calibrated for theaters like ours—intimate enough to catch every micro-expression and bold enough to carry the room with a single punchline or a perfectly timed silence. Our technical team has prepared a crisp, agile setup to serve quick changes of mood and tempo, allowing the performers to shift from razor-edged observation to physical play without losing momentum. We are ready for the pace, ready for the callbacks, and ready for a full house that leans forward in unison when the show tightens the spring and lets it snap.

The artistic moment and what the audience will experience

Le Duplex arrives at Radiant-Bellevue in the middle of a creative moment that favors freshness: newly honed writing, scenes that make the everyday feel surprising, and a staging approach that recognizes how today’s audiences think, scroll, and laugh. In recent seasons, the national conversation around comedy has been shaped by programs such as Quotidien, Clique, and La Bande Originale, and the sensibility of Le Duplex aligns with that contemporary rhythm—fast, conversational, and precise. The show thrives on details: the lift door that opens at the worst possible time, the innocuous chat that spirals into a misunderstanding, the social ritual that reveals the comic gap between what we say and what we mean. From our vantage point in the wings, we’ve configured lights and sound to accent the snap of a retort and the sweep of a reveal, while leaving the performers the space to improvise when the room invites it. Expect an evening that moves: short, sharp scenes with strong images; comic patterns that repeat and evolve; and an undercurrent of warmth that keeps the laughs human. Whether you come for wit, physicality, or the pleasure of a story that pays off in its final beat, this is a tour that knows how to bring all those threads together.

At Radiant-Bellevue, the experience is designed around that connection. Sightlines are clean across the auditorium, the mix is tuned for spoken-word clarity, and the atmosphere encourages a lively, attentive crowd. The show’s structure plays beautifully in our room: a rolling sequence of moments that build shared references, allowing running jokes to blossom with each return. You’ll feel the hush before a twist lands, the surge of laughter that follows, and the relaxed chatter in the interval as the audience compares favorite lines. We recommend arriving early to settle in, meet friends at the bar, and take your seat with time to watch the house fill—the energy of Le Duplex starts well before the first cue. Caluire-et-Cuire’s Radiant-Bellevue is easy to reach from central Lyon, and our team is on hand throughout the evening to help you get the most from your visit. If you’re following the Tournée across cities or discovering it here for the first time, this stop is set to capture the live spark that makes a performance unforgettable. The show is about timing, chemistry, and the unique electricity of the room—and our stage is ready to deliver it.
