Seuls is a show about us, about what we hide, what we deny, and what we pretend not to see. There are no taboos and no moral lessons, just an observation of the absurdities that surround us.
Once upon a time... "The other day..." is his catchphrase, his trademark: the expression that introduces each of his sketches. A true storyteller of everyday life, Olivier de Benoist recounts with verve and finesse his life experiences inspired by his family, the world of work, society... all of which are inexhaustible sources of jokes and anecdotes with highly laughable potential. With this man who defines himself as a popular comedian with a script, routine always turns into an adventure novel. A one-man show designed especially for Comédie+, so you can say... "The other day, I laughed so hard!" Recorded on June 25, 2025, at the Théâtre des Sources in Saint-Amand-les-Eaux, in the Hauts-de-France region, for the benefit of the Canal+ Group's Comédie+ channel.
From a tour of Paris in a tourist bus, to a father who has decided to become a "stay-at-home dad", to a manager who believes in his rap group, Smaïn underlines with his words and humor the flaws of our society that are, in the end, so familiar to us.

Family secrets, reconciliation with the past, laugh and cry with this musical show that you will love! Recorded at the Théâtre Actuel La Bruyère, in Paris's 9th arrondissement.
My name is Arnaud. I’m going to perform in the Trio show with Baptiste and Jérémy. I’ve been tasked with writing the pitch for the show. As I write these lines, I have no idea what it’s going to be. But roughly, here’s how it’ll go: we’re going to write a show, and it probably won’t go as planned because of one person. Apparently, me. Thanks to my vast experience, I’ll save the evening. Baptiste will follow me blindly because he loves me. Jérémy will yell at me. Because he’s an idiot. But one thing’s for sure: you’re going to laugh a lot. And so will we.

My name is Arnaud. I'm going to play in the Trio show with Baptiste and Jérémy. I've been asked to write the pitch for the show. As I write these lines, I don't know anything about it.
