Marc-Antoine Le Bret returns with a new show: "Solo". Still alone on stage, as the title suggests, he is nonetheless accompanied by a hundred characters whose voices he imitates with consummate talent throughout a bouquet of new sketches. In this show, the audience gets a little glimpse of what could happen if the world started turning upside down: a real post-apocalyptic show, before the end of the world, in short. But fortunately, humor is there to help swallow the pill. Didier Deschamps, Cyril Lignac, Stéphane Bern, Nelson Monfort, Marine Le Pen, Nicolas Sarkozy, Laurent Ruquier, Marlène Schiappa, Chantal Ladesou... the list of his imitations is even longer. He is now one of the most talented imitators of his generation. Marc-Antoine Le Bret is back on stage with a new show, SOLO.

Baptiste, a talented imitator, is unable to make a living from his art. One day, he is approached by Pierre Chozène, a famous but discreet novelist, constantly disturbed by incessant calls from his publisher, his daughter, his ex-wife... Pierre, who needs peace and quiet to write his most ambitious text, then suggests that Baptiste become his 'answering machine' by pretending to be him on the phone... Little by little, Baptiste doesn't just imitate the writer: he develops his character!
