Montreux Comedy Festival 2021 - Le super bal d'Alex Ramirès

They Had to See Paris

Oklahoma mechanic Pike Peters finds himself part owner of an oil field. His wife Idy, hitherto content, decides the family must go to Paris to get "culture" and meet "the right kind of people." Pike and his grown son and daughter soon have flirtatious French admirers; Idy rents a chateau from an impoverished aristocrat; while Pike responds to each new development with homespun wit. In the inevitable clash, will pretentiousness and sophistication or common sense triumph?

Lewis Black: Thanks For Risking Your Life

Lewis Black, heir to the George Carlin throne of the comedy rant, performed this set just days after the rest of America shut down (the show was allowed to go on because it was in a sovereign Native American venue), so his commentary covers our current Corona-induced anxiety and his own hilarious frustration over The-Orange-One-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.

Bo Burnham: What.

Left brain and right brain duke it out and then belt out a tune in comedian Bo Burnham's quick and clever one-man show. As intelligent as he is lanky, Burnham cynically pokes at pop entertainment while offering unadulterated showmanship of his own.

Bosso exagère trop!

Find all the joy of living of Patrick Bosso in his second show.

Jinkx Monsoon: Red Head Redemption

Follow Jinkx Monsoon through the weaving tale of her booze addled, sex-filled, gender defying life. In this (extremely) candid standup special, Jinkx shares her experiences as a trans-femme, non-binary, alcoholic, ethical slut. You’ll learn more than you ever wanted to know about her journey of self discovery– leading her to her husband, sobriety, and to be the first queen to win Drag Race twice! AND she sings!

Gaspard Proust tapine

With his off-kilter sense of humor, polyglot Gaspard Proust takes a mischievous delight in undermining the human quirks in this stand-up comedy, mixing insolence with elegance. A new sensation of the french stand-up scene and an outspokenness that needs to be heard to be believed.

Steven Banks: Home Entertainment Center

In this brilliant one-man show, the mild-mannered, thirty-something Steven Banks arrives home after a long day at his dead-end corporate job, still dreaming of being a rock star. Steven receives a message on his machine from his boss, Mr. Buttle, informing him that he never received an urgent speech Steven wrote for the board of directors. Steven must scramble to write a new one, but he has less than an hour to do it. Along the way, he continually procrastinates and distracts himself from the task at hand, playing with toys and various musical instruments, baking cookies, putting on costumes, leafing through an old high school yearbook and performing some hilarious original songs along the way. Meanwhile, he's got to deal with his grumpy landlord Mr. Mescue, his clingy girlfriend Phoebe and even a broken toilet. Will Steven ever finish his speech? Or does fate have something else in mind for him?

Jimmy Carr: Natural Born Killer

Jimmy Carr refutes the idea that one can't joke about anything these days with his edgy takes on gun control, religion, cancel culture, and consent.
