Jean dans la salle

Confluence spectacles 2, place de l'Europe 84000 Avignon
Theater, One man Show / One woman show
A French political figure with inimitable verve and an off-the-beaten-track career, Jean Lassalle takes to the stage for the first time with an autobiographical show that is as funny as it is moving.
For over an hour, alone on stage, he returns with humor, tenderness, and sincerity to the defining moments of his life. A sensitive and funny journey into the memory of a free and profoundly human man.

Throughout the show, Jean Lassalle mentions:

His first funeral as mayor
The day he had to retake his driving test
The Red Army Choir at the Bolshoi
The incredible story of the cow and the deputy
Lourdes by bus with the Quebecers
His hitchhiking on the first day of confinement
The level crossing and the salsify
But also: his birth, his parents, school and his shyness, the move from the cemetery of Lourdios, his native village, the marriages, Pope John Paul II, the shepherd and the lost goat...

Directed by Magda Hadnagy, the show offers an intimate look into an extraordinary life, with a stripped-down production to highlight the man behind the public figure.

A rare moment, between confidences, laughter and raw emotions, not to be missed.
Jean Lassalle as you've never seen him before... but still with his accent!
