Description

Come and discover the hidden stories behind the lyrics of your favorite songs, in this cabaret blending Drag King and Improvisation!<div> Welcome to the cabaret of Baron P. Cock, a flamboyant and baroque Drag King persona. Behind the curtain hide thousands... sorry, hundreds... well, dozens... Okay: two "things"... They don't sing, they don't dance, but they perform the lyrics of your chosen songs with unparalleled dramatic flair!</div><div><br></div><div> At each performance, the audience suggests song titles and tells what their lyrics inspire in them: an emotion, a memory, a situation, an image... These few words become the raw material for improvised scenes where the most well-known refrains take totally unexpected paths.</div><div><br></div><div> In this timeless cabaret, improvisations converse with drag king acts, intertwining, responding to one another, and blurring the lines between disciplines. Baron P. Cock leads the show with panache, surrounded by his two enigmatic "things," in an atmosphere as elegant as it is extravagant. Here, Patrick Sébastien can be portrayed like an Audiard film, Aya Nakamura can find herself in Antiquity, and a love song can become a Shakespearean tragedy. Each act reinvents the lyrics from a new angle—funny, absurd, poetic, or completely offbeat.</div><div><br></div><div> Words, words... is an invitation to rediscover songs that we thought we knew by heart.</div><div><br></div><div> Between the energy of cabaret, the freedom of improvisation and the audacity of the Drag King, the show surprises, makes people laugh and proves that sometimes all it takes is a change of interpretation to tell a completely different story...</div>
