Thomas Marty - Nouveau Spectacle - Tournée

Thomas Marty brings his Nouveau spectacle to Lyon

We are delighted to host Thomas Marty with his Nouveau spectacle as part of his wide-ranging Tournée, an evening we’ve curated to highlight the unfiltered energy and intimate storytelling that have made his rise so compelling. Audiences in our Lyon setting know how to meet a comic halfway, and this show invites precisely that encounter: conversational, finely observed, and full of the quick pivots that can turn an offhand detail into a roar of laughter. Nouveau spectacle is Thomas Marty’s next chapter—a fresh set of stories, angles, and characters presented with the warmth and spontaneity that define his onstage presence. Expect an hour-plus that moves briskly from everyday absurdities to sharp portraits of family, friendship, and regional quirks, with the kind of crowd interplay that keeps each performance alive to the room.

A sharpened voice shaped by recent stages and screens

Thomas Marty arrives in Lyon with momentum built on packed rooms and widely shared clips, the kind that have amplified his natural rapport with audiences beyond the comedy circuit. Fans will recognize the grounded, south-to-north sensibility and his wry look at modern habits: how we text, how we host, how we exaggerate small inconveniences into epic sagas. Those who discovered him through recent sets on Paname Comedy Club or festival stages will find that Nouveau spectacle pushes further—tighter writing, faster transitions, and punchlines that land in quick succession without losing the confessional pulse at the core of his comedy. Online, his sketches such as “Le Sud-Ouest expliqué aux Parisiens,” “Le premier appart,” and “Les messages vocaux de maman” have showcased a knack for precise character work: the cousin who overshares, the friend who won’t commit to plans, the parent whose voice note arrives at the worst possible time. In Lyon, these recurring archetypes resurface as springboards for new stories, with fresh detours into the rituals of meals that last too long, the heroic myths of local sports nights, and the small-town pride that refuses to be edited out of big-city life. The pacing of this set is notably agile—Marty can linger in a moment to mine an awkward silence, then shift gears into a rapid-fire run that builds to a satisfying, room-wide release.

Hosting Thomas Marty at Bourse du Travail Lyon, we’ve tuned the evening around his strengths: clarity of voice, crisp timing, and a live rhythm that thrives on eye contact and quick response. The Nouveau spectacle material is especially well-suited to a Lyon audience, where everyday scenes—communal tables, crowded terraces, the dance between tradition and modern hustle—land with extra recognition. You’ll hear him expand on themes from the recent sketches that brought him new followers, but with a storyteller’s patience and a stand-up’s appetite for risk: setting up a familiar scenario, bending it on an unexpected line, then circling back with a callback that feels earned rather than merely clever. He plays with the space, too—shifting from reflective monologue to a near-theatrical reconstruction of a family gathering, then to an aside that feels improvised but locks perfectly into the spine of the set. For those meeting him live for the first time, this is the Thomas Marty experience at full scale: close-up humor told with regional color, modern anxieties filtered through affectionate irony, and the joyful sense that, for one night, a room in Lyon becomes the living room where everyone’s stories are welcome. Nouveau spectacle on this Tournée is a chance to see a voice in motion, testing, refining, and sharing the laughter that keeps pace with real life.
