Paul Taylor - F*** Me I'm French (100% In English) - Tournée

Radiant-Bellevue welcomes Paul Taylor with F Me I’m French — 100% in English

At Radiant-Bellevue, we love the spark that ignites when a sharp comedic voice meets an audience ready to laugh across cultures. That is precisely why we are thrilled to host Paul Taylor with F Me I’m French — 100% in English, a show that lives and breathes in the lively space between languages, habits, and social codes. From our stage, his precision with rhythm and tone is unmistakable: the grin before the punch, the darting callback that ties a story together, the sudden switch in accent that makes the whole room lean in. Even at 100% in English, the show lands with anyone who has stood in a queue, stumbled through a greeting, or wrestled with the unwritten rules of everyday life. Our hall is designed to carry every shade of his irony and warmth, so whether you’re an Anglophone, a bilingual regular, or a curious first-timer, expect a night where observational comedy turns the quirks of French and British life into a shared, roaring conversation.

Artist spotlight: recent projects, signature sketches, and the touring moment

Paul Taylor’s momentum is unmistakable, and we are delighted to host him at Radiant-Bellevue right in the middle of a buzzing tournée. Many first discovered him through his hit Canal+ series What the Fuck France, followed by What’s Up France? and Stereotrip—programs that set the tone for his witty dissection of language, identity, and the odd rituals we take for granted. On stage, he has built sell-out tours with Franglais and So British (ou presque), and his digital presence keeps growing through Paul Taylor’s Happy Hour Live and a steady stream of stand-up clips that roll out new angles on daily bilingual misadventures. F Me I’m French — 100% in English distills that experience into a fast, playful hour where his crowd work, sharp callbacks, and fearless storytelling take center stage. He delights in tugging at the edges of politeness, decoding taboo words, and showing how a tiny accent shift can flip meaning on its head. The result is a punchy, contemporary comedy experience rooted in today’s France, shaped by a global sensibility, and honed for a room like ours that knows how to listen, laugh, and respond in real time.

From our vantage point at Radiant-Bellevue, a show like this is about more than jokes; it’s about the texture of the room. We set the stage for clarity and intimacy—sightlines that keep you connected to his expression, sound that preserves the snap of every tag, and a pace that lets the laughter breathe. Paul’s style rewards attention and rewards it quickly: a sly premise, a zoom into the detail, then a ricochet to a wider cultural point. That interplay thrives here. You will feel the collective hush before a turn of phrase, the shared shock at a perfectly placed swear, and the delightful release when a story resolves in a way you didn’t see coming. Hosting him on this tournée affirms our commitment to bringing international voices to the Lyon metropolitan area, and to giving audiences a chance to experience comedy as it is performed across the world right now—smart, energetic, and confidently multilingual, even when the evening is 100% in English. Join us at Radiant-Bellevue for an event that captures the humor of everyday contradictions and the joy of hearing them articulated by a comic who has built a career out of making the local feel gloriously universal.
