Les Wriggles Bring Their Chanson-Theatre Show to L'Olympia on 10 October

French vocal group Les Wriggles return to the road with a stage show that blends chanson française, humour and collective performance, stopping at L'Olympia in Paris on Saturday 10 October before continuing across France. Formed in café-théâtre, the group has built a recognizable style at the crossroads of song, theatre and collective performance, with tight harmonies, musical dialogue, counterpoint and a cappella choruses. Their set alternates sung sketches, offbeat ballads and short scenes, supported by precise staging that plays on ruptures, silences and choral passages. Everything on stage revolves around the dynamics of a troupe, with voices, instruments and stage play interwoven. Their lyrics offer ironic observation of everyday life, delivered with a freedom of tone that has long attracted a loyal audience. The group describes its songs as humour pieces and slices of an absolute quest, telling the world as they see it — provoking laughter, gritted teeth or tears. The Paris date is followed by a French tour. The event is a partner event of the Club Artistik Rezo.
