Lisa Perrio

In this one-woman show co-written with Florian Nardone, Lisa brings to life the characters she encounters throughout her day: Kim the artistic director, misogynistic and misandrist; Marc the gynaecologist frustrated at not living his passion for theatre; Candice the sports coach who only exists through the gaze of men… Through them, Lisa pokes fun at our absurdities, our contradictions, and our awkwardness.

Carried by a contagious energy, the show strings together situations that are as embarrassing as they are recognisable. Lisa's gaze observes our flaws with bite and tenderness, always accompanied by a disarming smile that invites complicity.

Touch by touch, in the manner of an impressionist, within this gallery of characters, a more intimate story also emerges: that of waiting for an absent father.

C'est compliqué, je t'expliquerai is a brilliantly written show, populated by endearing characters, which reveals a singular artist capable of shaking up everyday life to better bring forth laughter.
