Monsieur Fernandez - Dans L'avis Des Autres - Théâtre Le Boui-boui De Lyon

Le Boui-Boui welcomes Monsieur Fernandez

At Le Boui-Boui in Lyon, we are delighted to host Monsieur Fernandez with his new one-man show L'avis des autres, a production that aligns perfectly with the intimate spirit of our venue. As a stage dedicated to close-range comedy and precision timing, we look for performers who make every seat feel like the front row, and Monsieur Fernandez embodies that philosophy. His timing is crisp, his storytelling playful yet pointed, and his rapport with the crowd immediate. In recent months, we have seen a growing appetite from our audience for comedy that blends sharp observation with improvisation, and he arrives at just the right moment, bringing fresh material forged on the road and polished in tight rooms like ours. From the vantage point of our stage, we can already feel the electricity that occurs when an audience recognizes itself in a story—and that chemistry is very much at the core of this artist’s craft. He navigates contemporary anxieties with warmth and wit, reminding us that laughter is often born where vulnerability meets perspective. As we program the season, his appearance marks a priority on voices that speak frankly about the city, the times, and the awkward ballet of daily life. Whether you are a dedicated comedy-goer or simply curious to discover a new face up close, L'avis des autres at Le Boui-Boui promises a smart, quick, and generous night of live performance.

What to expect from L'avis des autres at Le Boui-Boui

L'avis des autres is a playful deep dive into how we measure ourselves through the gaze of others: colleagues, family, strangers, and, of course, the anonymous chorus of social media. In our black-box setting, where a glance or a raised eyebrow travels the entire room, Monsieur Fernandez crafts sequences that turn everyday micro-moments into fully fledged comic set pieces. He moves with physical precision, punctuating stories with gestures that make small details feel cinematic, then lets silences breathe just long enough to invite the next wave of laughter. The show pivots effortlessly between self-mockery and empathy—one minute dissecting the rituals of first impressions or the tyranny of unsolicited advice, the next minute opening a space for spontaneous exchanges with the audience. For us as hosts, the pleasure lies in witnessing how he calibrates pace and rhythm: short, punchy riffs give way to longer arcs, as if he is letting the room write the punchline with him. Across this run, he will share new bits shaped by recent stage time and the lively conversations that follow; it is clear he’s in a productive period, experimenting with formats that blend classic stand-up, character fragments, and quick-fire crowd work. If you have followed his stage journey, you will notice a bolder, more agile voice; if you are discovering him for the first time, expect a show that feels immediate, contemporary, and joyfully interactive. This is the kind of performance our space was built for: honest, precise, and irresistibly human, delivered so close you can hear the spark before the laugh.
