To bookDescription
A liberating show that challenges masculinity with humor and finesse!<div> Everyone knows Eve Ensler's famous Vagina Monologues, the first feminist show and an international success translated into 45 languages and performed all over the world. Thomas Caruso Aragona's The Thing Monologues could be considered its male counterpart.</div><div><br></div><div> A show that humorously and kindly explores the place of modern man. A skillful blend of laughter and introspection where three moving actors talk about the thingamajig, that vague thing dangling between their legs that we either don't name or misname.</div><div> A playful comedy aimed at anyone old enough to question the male sex, a true obsession and a permanent social issue if ever there was one.</div><div><br></div><div> This show, which could be likened to a lecture on the penis given its precision and documentation, is a fine blend of humor, lightness, and depth.</div><div><br></div><div> One thing is for sure, after seeing it, you'll know everything about the penis.</div><div><br></div><div> <strong>Did you know that?</strong></div><div> The first show from La Comédie des Alpes to tour to Paris, Les Monologues du Machin has already racked up over 100 performances in the capital since September 2025, first at the Petit Palais des Glaces, then at the Théâtre Comédie Bastille, where it continues to run weekly. The show was also nominated for a Molière Award in 2026, a wonderful recognition for this original creation born in Savoy.</div>
