La Claque, Fred Radix's creative and entertaining show, returns to enchant the stage of the Gaîté Montparnasse from September 15, 2024 to May 27, 2025. After a resounding success in its first season, this interactive musical comedy takes us back to 1895 Paris, at the heart of a theatrical adventure as hilarious as it is ingenious.
In La Claque, Auguste Levasseur, leader of a troupe of professional clappers, finds himself in a tricky situation when his claque fails him just before a big premiere. With the help of Fauvette, the orchestra's musician, and Dugommier, the stage manager, they must urgently form a new team of clappers. The trio has just one hour and thirty minutes to prepare the novices to applaud the key moments of a complex play with five acts, forty musicians and thirty set changes.
