Perfect show to see in Paris !! - Excellent! Perfect show to see in 1hr. Very funny and many good laughs. Room was a little squashy and hard to get out of but otherwise very quaint.

Apology - Please ignore my earlier review about the coffee service being “closed”. This was a mistake as it referred to Reading Room cafe in brighton which is an unrelated business

Must do for English speakers in Paris - Funny show! One of the few English speaking shows I saw so booked it and didn’t disappoint. Some poking fun of Americans (it was funny-not offensive) and mostly making fun of Parisians. There were people from all over the world, including Parisians. He involves the audience and includes them but also plays off who is in the room, which is great. He mentioned changing up his routine a couple times a years so people can return and see a new show

Good show, but getting a bit stale. - Funny show, but getting a bit dated. Especially the audience interacting seemed to drag, and not work as well. I think the comedian could do much better by taking a year off and doing standard standard comedy and honing his crowd interactions.

Nice visit to cute theater - Nice accommodation, cozy theater. The performance was pretty good. Mainly aimed at non-Europeans (Americans)

A talented comedian who tailored his act to a more general public - It was alright. Very cheesy and very cliché. I think that if you have a refined sense of humor and are used to great comedy shows, you'll see that this one appeals to a certain crowd. I personally couldn't wait to leave. I think he's a very talented comedian who tailored his material to the general public's tastes. It's a shame but maybe from a business perspective, it makes sense. I guess it works. He's been doing this for 16 years.

Rarely funny. Often... - Rarely funny. Often crude. Performs tropes of Parisians and foreigners (mostly Americans). If you’re just here for a week or so, better to spend your time doing something else.
