Phaneuf

It is a question here of deploying all the humor inherent in the act of having a first child at the age of forty-five... But it is also a question of civic-mindedness, respect for intelligence, weight words, the weight of the self, the triumph of the “I”, then a little bit of Henri Richard and people who say “knock on wood”. A vibrant soliloquy on life and the art of living it.

This fifth solo show is a personal story, a short treatise on the disappointments, the distractions and the choices at the heart of the atypical life of a privileged person. Captured on 16mm motion picture film at the Cabaret Lion d'Or in May 2022.

Simon Gouache explores his strengths, but above all his weaknesses, through his first one-man show. Focusing on the originality of ideas, the finesse of the writing and a unique ease on stage, the comedian uses his own experiences to make you revisit certain facets of your personality.
