Between August 4 and 9 – Théâtre de Verdure & Place Masséna – Nice
Supported by the City of Nice, Directo Diffusion has decided to offer you the best remedy against the crisis: laughter!
Once again, Directo Diffusion and the City of Nice have decided to offer the public a lively and open festival, so trust them and come share moments of emotions, surprises, and above all laughter with them!
Come let your zygomatic muscles run free at the Théâtre de Verdure in Nice with Anne Roumanoff, Christelle Chollet, Michael Gregorio, Thibault Choplin, Tano, and Laurent Barat.
The festival will take place in two phases with the establishment of a TREMPLIN OFF from August 4 to 6 at Place Masséna, allowing young local and national comedians to make themselves known, as well as animate Place Masséna ahead of the Festival.

PROGRAM
On August 7, 2014, at the Théâtre de Verdure at 9 PM: CHRISTELLE CHOLLET
Want to know the connection between the little women of Pigalle and viedemerde.fr? Between Claude François and Amy Winehouse? Ask Christelle Chollet!
A unique artist: a showwoman who has reinvented the music hall genre!
THIBAUD CHOPLIN
Humor is not lacking: through biting parodies and incisive sketches, the artist “sticks closely” to current events and parodies television shows.
On August 8, 2014, at the Théâtre de Verdure at 9 PM: ANNE ROUMANOFF
She hits where it hurts, whether with a coach who helps the audience release toxins, a clueless teenager, a wealthy protester, or an underperforming intern. Couples’ lives, women, politics, everything is scrutinized by her devastating humor.
TANO
An independent Corsican with crazy demands, a lone songwriter standing against all odds, an outraged comedy critic against vulgarity, a Corsican in love with his butcher, a virtuoso bank robber, a terrorist hunter, and a mythomaniac…
On August 9, 2014, at the Théâtre de Verdure at 9 PM: MICHAËL GREGORIO
Did you miss the Black Eyed Peas concert? Dreamed of hearing Jacques Brel on stage? In this show, Michaël Gregorio pushes the boundaries of imitation. This young prodigy places humor and emotion at the heart of his lifelike performances.
LAURENT BARAT
Romantic relationships, unfriendly coworkers, bad Asian restaurateurs, incomprehensible internet advisors, diets that don’t work… who hasn’t faced at least one of these in their lives?
