Comedy Clubs

Come and have a laugh about Destination Granville Terre et Mer

Over the last two years, comedy clubs have been springing up all over France: there are no fewer than 4 stand-up evenings organised in Caen every week, and more than 6 in Rennes. At Destination Granville Terre et Mer, stand-up is also on a roll!

Stand-up comedy

Humorous art on the rise

Over the past two years, comedy clubs have been springing up all over France: there are no fewer than 4 stand-up nights organised in Caen every week, and more than 6 in Rennes. In the Manche department, the Show dans La Baie festival held at the Carameuh farm has now been held twice. The most recent edition, held in April with stars such as Alex Vizorek and Aymeric Lompret, attracted 6,000 spectators over three days. This humorous art form is also developing in Destination Granville Terre et Mer.

Stand-up ? Comedy Club?

What is it?

Stand-upcomedy is a fast-growingform of public speaking that originated in the United States and takes many forms. What makes it special is that the comedian addresses the audience directly, recounting funny anecdotes or reflections from everyday life. A Comedy Club is an evening dedicated to stand-up where several comedians share a stage to perform acts lasting between 5 and 15 minutes. There’s plenty of diversity on each set, with local artists rubbing shoulders with comedians from Caen Comedy Club, Rennes and Paris. On stage, you’ll see amateurs and established comedians, as well as seasoned professionals! It’s a great way to bring stand-up comedy to Granville… and to introduce Granville to artists who have travelled from far and wide! These stages give local artists and beginners alike a place to perform.

Portraits

local comedians
Emmanuel Revah

Emmanuel Revah, a comedian in his forties with an atypical background, was born in London, grew up in New York, lived in Paris and now lives in Donville-les-Bains. This self-taught former systems engineer draws on his international experience and his analytical mind to offer humour that is as rich as it is sharp. With a unique style, he blends reflection and derision to explore the absurdities and contradictions of our times. Contact :

Céline Ledoux

Céline Ledoux, 48, is a comedian with an original, offbeat style, and founder of the Roc Comedy Club. She has taken up stand-up comedy to tell the story of her atypical career in a self-deprecating way. For the past four years, she has been an assiduous practitioner of theatrical improvisation, a discipline that enriches her stage performances with joyful spontaneity and strong interaction with the audience.

Mr Mustache

Antoine Lefranc, aka Monsieur Moustache, is a 38-year-old baker from Carolles, and a fan of PDO humour that smacks of local culture and culture in general. His universe is made up of local jokes centred on La Manche, its PMUs, its parochial quarrels, its brocantes, its estate agents… Contact:
