Every day, Europe 1 looks at an idea or a problem in your daily life. Stand-up is attracting more and more French people, and not only as spectators. The Paname Comedy Club, a renowned stage for comedians, allows many young talents to make themselves known on the Parisian stage.

The stand-up format is a hit in France, spectators love it and some even take the step of the stage. In Paris, the Paname Comedy Club, a stage where heavyweights like Gad Elmaleh or Elie Semoun pass, also allows many young talents to try their hand at comedy shows. In this tiny packed room, the formula is simple: for an hour, the comedians follow one another, they have six minutes to make people laugh and at the exit, the audience is conquered.

For this young spectator, it is a bet won for the one who animated the evening. "We're comfortable, we really laugh, we don't take the lead. It was too good a surprise and it was funny, it was humor affordable to all, very nice." The same goes for this young man, won over by the concept of the Paname Comedy Club: "It's always a pleasure thanks to the fact that they let go, they are without pressure, they make their valve. And even if they do not pass, we laugh anyway.

"We don't have time to fall asleep!"

And on that day, the artists ready to perform on stage included Tom Baldetti, who took his first steps in stand-up four years ago. "These are texts that are already ours. I think it's a discipline where you don't have to follow a choreography or a text that is already written by someone else. So yes, there is that freedom."

Some young lovers of humor are no longer confined to these scenes, where the proximity with the artist is as much physical as relational. "It's not this very, very formal thing of theatre, it's an exchange. We feel much more involved. We talked, we don't have time to fall asleep!", appreciates this other spectator, in whom a vocation seems to have been born, "You know what happens when two fish fight? The tone is rising."
