Without tongue in cheek, the thirty-year-old Belgian comedian confesses his vices in a second stand-up, We said we were partying. What talent!
It starts off badly. « Are you well, Paris? » « Make some noise, I can’t hear you. » « I’m so happy to see you. » Fanny Ruwet imitates the young shoots of the Jamel Comedy Club. Fortunately, the continuation of his “stand-up”, entitled We said we were partying, is more interesting. Already, this Colt fan no longer leans on a microphone boom like in her first show, Happy birthday Jean (2019, to watch or rewatch on Canal+), it is fixed on his temple. So much for the form.
Basically, without knowing it, the former France Inter columnist who officiated in The Original Soundtrack de Nagui is an heiress of Blanche Gardin, and lighter if we dare say, a sister of Doully. In an explosive cocktail where despair and melancholy mix, she talks about bisexuality, psychological excesses and others, without taboo, without restraint. We are not surprised that she opened for her compatriot Alex Vizorek or Kyan Khojandi (spotted with the series Brief).
Three times ten years
Fanny Ruwet jokes that she hates children and imagines reasons to avoid them. The thought that her mother might be in the room makes her double over. She justifies herself by warning that she is three times ten years old. We will add a language as sharp and caustic as his writing. « Rigor mortis ? The ultimate gain »she assures. Fanny Ruwet has a 190 degree open mind, she spontaneously confesses her “sins”. She likes to masturbate but not the old fashioned way; Why « to work » when technology is capable of sending you to seventh heaven?
Coming from the Institute of Advanced Studies in Social Communications (IHECS) and a School of Journalism in Brussels, the thirty-year-old recounts her secrets at the speed of a woodpecker attacking the trunk of an oak tree. She loves drinking and smoking weed to relax. A priori homosexual, she is not against « tester » men and love « too much » THE « toxic people ». Moreover, she imagines a sexual relationship that would take place on a dating site with… her parent. The latter is, after all, only twice his age.
The life of Fanny Ruwet, author of a funny novel Of course the fish are cold (Proche collection, May 2024) was not easy. His parents separated when he was born. The little girl saw her father again for the first time at 8 years old. She consulted several psychiatrists. They helped her, but it wasn’t enough. In her previous show, she asked herself: « What is a united family compared to a good valve ? »
A fan of self-deprecation, the comedian does not claim to preach the good word. She just advises listening to yourself. She herself has difficulty, but there is something miraculous about speaking. Performing on stage is worth a session at the psychiatrist. His talent allows him to go beyond his personal problems to make them universal. Who has never experienced an existential crisis?
» They said we were partying, on tour from January to December 2025 in France, Switzerland, Luxembourg and Belgium, and at the Théâtre de l’Atelier in Paris, on April 12.
