Running from July 4 to August 30, 2025 at the Théâtre de la Tour Eiffel, this new show would bring to a close a theatrical and musical trilogy begun by the artist, in a format mixing confidences, characters, memories and live music.

La Folle repart en thèse is intended as a plunge into Liane Foly 's personal and artistic universe, as the self-confessed sexagenarian takes the floor to retrace the chapters of her life with self-mockery. Between the "smile drugstore" and the "family orchestra", she sails from tasty anecdotes to sketched portraits, always with her very own touch of madness. Alternating life stories, on-stage humor and musical improvisations, she takes turns embodying her loved ones, her memories and herself, in a resolutely lively and generous performance.
Fancy going to see a play or show in Paris or the Ile-de-France region, but don't know which one to choose? Our reviews of current plays and shows are here to advise you! [Read more]
This show would appeal to a wide audience, whether loyal to Liane Foly's universe or curious to discover a complete artist in a more personal register. Its blend of autobiographical storytelling, humor and music will appeal as much to fans of one-woman shows as it will to those with a fondness for the French music scene. On the other hand, fans of text-based theater or purely dramatic formats may be less receptive to this hybrid form, somewhere between stage confidence and intimate cabaret.
With La Folle repart en thèse, Liane Foly offers a moment of tender, joyful musical theater, in her own image. From July 4 to August 30, 2025, the Théâtre de la Tour Eiffel will host this warm-hearted show, in which the artist will tell her story with sincerity, humor and panache, in a celebration of life, the stage... and the present.
