An evening that closed three years of touring and crowned a format that has become, date after date, one of jewbuzz’s flagship events.
An evening designed for the community
For this exceptional edition, several comedians took to the stage of the Dôme one after another: Samuel Bambi, Julien Santini, Franjo, Tareek, Nash, Alex Fredo, David Azria and Vincent Seroussi.
With one feature that has become the jewbuzz Comedy Club’s trademark: Jewish and non-Jewish comedians brought together around sketches specially written and adapted to the codes of the community.
The evening was hosted by Yoël, co-organiser of the adventure alongside jewbuzz.
Between the comedians’ sets, an oriental orchestra performed live reinterpretations of several popular hits, from Noam Bettan’s “Michelle” to Michael Jackson’s “Beat It”.
Amir, Élie Semoun, Arthur… and several surprises
This edition at the Dôme was also punctuated by numerous surprise appearances.
Amir came to get the 4,300 spectators singing, while artist Richard Orlinski, after being at the centre of a sketch, gave away around a hundred sculptures to the audience and revealed the upcoming collaborations planned with jewbuzz.
Élie Semoun then joined the stage for a surprise set, before Arthur closed the evening to a standing ovation.
Another promise made to the audience at the start of the show: one spectator went home with a car won in a prize draw.
Three years of touring before the Dôme
This Paris date was the culmination of an adventure that began three years earlier in a venue seating 80 people.
Since then, the jewbuzz Comedy Club has travelled to many cities, including Paris, Marseille, Lyon, Strasbourg, Nice, Geneva and Brussels, gradually building a loyal audience around the concept.
The move to the Dôme de Paris marks a spectacular change of scale: from 80 spectators at the first edition to 4,300 people gathered for this evening.
An exceptional evening despite the heatwave
The event took place during a period of intense heat in Paris.
To make conditions as comfortable as possible, 4,500 bottles of water and hand fans were handed out for free, misting systems were set up in the queues and eight portable air conditioners were added to the venue at the last minute.
Despite these unusual conditions, the audience turned out in force throughout the evening and contributed to the exceptional atmosphere of this edition.
More than a comedy show
Since its launch, the ambition of the jewbuzz Comedy Club has gone beyond a simple line-up of stand-up sets.
The project aims to create a moment when thousands of people can come together around shared references, while bringing on stage artists from different worlds and backgrounds.
This edition at the Dôme was its strongest illustration yet: 4,300 people gathered, Jewish and non-Jewish comedians, music, surprise guests and, above all, a room united by laughter.
A new milestone in the history of jewbuzz, and in that of a project which, three years earlier, began in front of 80 people.
