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.
