Frédérick Sigrist: 39–45, the age of deconstruction at L'Éuropéen

Frédérick Sigrist presents 39–45, l’âge de la déconstruction at L’Européen, on 22 October 2026 and 23 February 2027 at 7:30 PM. After a season at Funambule Montmartre, the comedian brings this one-man show back to the venue on Rue Biot in the 17th arrondissement of Paris.

The title gathers a handful of personal and collective anchors. The figure 39 nods to the kilos Frédérick Sigrist shed, while 45 marks the moment he realized he’d left youth behind without quite being old. The pairing of the two numbers opens a historical thread the show uses to interrogate our times.

From these stages of his life, the author observes social injunctions, the relationship to the body, and the expectations tied to age. The personal narrative thus becomes the starting point for a stand-up show focused on how we define ourselves and reinvent who we are.

Frédérick Sigrist wrote the script and directs, and stars in this show, officially running 1 hour 30 minutes. The production is handled by Le Funambule Montmartre.
