He finds that our time resembles the frankness of Taxi – we already know that what happens next won’t be great. Our reality has become worse than a poor remake? This is the postulate of Benjamin Décosterd. Which is worth it, as a preamble to his show, a trailer for 2024: war in Ukraine, Israeli-Palestinian conflict, climate collapse and… Servette victory (first lost ball, not the last).

In short, like an impression that everything is going to waste – well, not Benjamin Décosterd. He’s doing pretty well. The proof is that the comedian and columnist is currently giving his first solo performance at the Pavillon Naftule, this new ephemeral house of humor which has sprung up on the edge of the lake in Lausanne. So how do we reconcile these two truths? Can you sip your coffee in a burning house?
