A surprising and scathing one-woman-show that takes us behind the scenes of the Senate, this is the mission that Hélène Vézier, alias Madame Meuf, former parliamentary attaché, has given herself.
If her path was all traced in politics, it is boards that the actress has always dreamed of.
From the senate to the theater boards, Madame Meuf, former parliamentary assistant presents her show "Politically incorrect" in which she recounts her adventures in the Senate.
She dreamed of the boards, and here she is a student at Sciences Po Toulouse, her path was therefore clear for a career in politics.
Hélène Vézier, alias Madame Meuf, spent fifteen years being what she calls "the little hand", while in the Senate, "for a man, we say right arm".
She is thus a parliamentary assistant and talks about it with as much seriousness as derision.
"When I explain what I was doing, I say, it's like Pénélope Fillon, except that I came, I earned a lot less money and I didn't hit the boss."

For an hour, with dynamism and a raw and captivating tone, Madame Meuf recounts the carpeted backstage of the Luxembourg Palace, her senator, her colleagues and the meetings that are useless.
She has a "bore out", which is equivalent to an existential crisis as for her job and decides to slam the Senate door to finally get on the front of the stage.
"You expect to experience incredible stuff when you get there and in fact people are discussing the cover, the speech, the color, the grammage".
The writing is incisive and the protrusions raw, and what better way to end this show than a therapy by screaming, which the spectator is obviously invited to practice, to his greatest satisfaction!
A show to see in Paris, at La Nouvelle Seine every Wednesday evening and on tour throughout France.
