The comedy show that popularizes philosophy!
An ordinary man (Christophe Delort) will attempt to retrace the incredible history of philosophy and the ideas of the great philosophers in 3600 seconds*. From Socrates' trial to Nietzsche's eternal return, from Plato's cave to Spinoza's joy... An interactive, didactic show for beginners curious to learn, or initiates who want to review the basics with a sense of humor.
"A quote in quotation marks by an anonymous author always looks more serious" - Anonymous. 3600 seconds = 1 hour for math dummies.
Did you know? This show sold out the Festival OFF d'Avignon in 2022, 2023 and 2024 and plays at the Grand Point Virgule year-round. Christophe Delort is also the author and director of the successful Sherlock Holmes adaptations. As he likes to say: "The real philosophy is to see things as they are". It's a gamble he's more than won, as he succeeds in taking us on board with audacity, panache, pedagogy and humor for an hour of philosophy.
Their comments:
Corfoux06 (Billetreduc.com - 10/10): "What a delight! After 40 years of not doing philosophy, this was a great wake-up call, all with a lot of humor. The audience joined in and it was hilarious. One of my all-time favorites - don't look any further for a show, it's this one!"
Chris (Billetreduc.com - 10/10): "Philosophy with lots of humor. A very informative show with a lot of humor. I've rarely learned so much with so much humor. A show not to be missed under any circumstances."
Sonia Basset (Billetreduc.com - 10/10): "Excellent! Christophe Delort is incredible, dynamic, sharp, creative and passionate. He brings philosophy to life with humor and finesse. Bravo! Run to see him!"
Avignon et moi: "A real compendium of erudition mixed with the facetious wit of a talented comedian. This show is guaranteed to be as rewarding as it is entertaining, provided you keep an open mind and a smile on your face!"
