From a tour of Paris in a tourist bus, to a father who has decided to become a "stay-at-home dad", to a manager who believes in his rap group, Smaïn underlines with his words and humor the flaws of our society that are, in the end, so familiar to us.
Touching on bulimia, death and cat sodomy, this French actress and comedian is keen to push the envelope in a one-woman show with understated flair.
Five short stories loosely dealing with the roles of women in society. A superstar actress travels to a mountain resort, only to evoke jealousy from women and lust from men. A woman offers to take an injured man to the hospital. A widowed father and his son seek for a new wife/mother. A man seeks revenge for a woman's honor. A bored housewife tries to explain to her husband that he's not as romantic as he used to be.
On stage, the actress talks about her life in the 20th-century French theatre, the great authors she played and the famous stage directors of the time who directed her.
After three years of absence, Florence Foresti goes back on stage. She jubilantly tackles everyday absurdities, old age, disillusionment, death and relationships between men and women.
Emily Wilson's debut comedy special about her humiliating experience as a contestant on The X Factor USA at 15-years-old.

Cathy Gauthier presents her fourth one-woman show called Classique. The comedian jokes on several themes and tells various anecdotes from her daily life, notably addressing her childbirth and her life as a couple.
"Wishful Drinking" is based on Fisher's memoirs of the same title. The stage adaptation had its world premiere in 2006 at the Geffen Playhouse in L.A. It later played at Berkeley Repertory before opening on Broadway in October at Studio 54. The show takes audiences on a comic tour of Fisher's messy personal life and career. The actress-writer recounts stories about her work on the "Star Wars" series as well as her relationship with her parents Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds. She also discusses her much-publicized problems with alcohol and drugs.
Florence Foresti lets loose on stage at La Cigale in Paris, performing with total confidence. She brings to life a gallery of sharp and hilarious characters. Drawing on the trivialities of everyday life, the comedian exposes human flaws and turns them into sparkling, unexpected situations. From waking up next to a stranger after a Saturday night out, to a compulsive liar bragging about a fake love story, and a hysterical actress, she wraps up her show by taking aim at a plastic pop idol. The immaturity of men and the frivolity of women are among her favorite themes.
