Mathieu Madénian

“À pleurer de rire” (To Cry with Laughter) is the promise Mathieu Madenian makes with this fourth and new show, in which he recounts with his incredible sense of self-deprecation how his life and his deepest certainties were turned upside down by the late arrival of his first child.

For an hour, delivered at a breakneck pace, Mathieu takes us on a dive into the tumultuous world of a newly minted father attempting to juggle the absurdity of a world on the brink of chaos while learning the ropes of fatherhood.

How to reconcile his traditional upbringing with the new wave of modern fatherhood? How to explain gender concepts to his son... when he doesn't even master TikTok? And above all, how not to come across as a clueless boomer?

With his unique talent for transforming everyday life into comedy, Mathieu offers us a show where he talks about his mistakes, his failures, and the lessons he learns from his little boy, who, barely born, already seems to know more about life than he does.

A hilarious and moving journey in which Mathieu delivers his most personal and most universal show.
