Tania Dutel analyzes the others at La Comédie de Toulouse
Tania Dutel has made a name for herself in French humor in recent years. Fascinated by the stage since childhood, she now offers her own shows. The comedian will notably be at The Comedy of Toulouse to present “The Others” in January 2023. In the meantime, back to some areas where she laid her milestones.
Tania Dutel’s career is atypical. Today under the lights of many theaters, the comedian did not start his career with his feet on the boards. A graduate of a bac S, she was notably a waitress at the Buffalo Grill in Villefranche-sur-Saône, an anecdote that we like to remind her on the antenna of France Inter. At the microphone of this same radio, it was translated against HPI self-diagnoses (high intellectual potential), prices per square meter in the metaverse, “made in Bangladesh” labels, people who eat popcorn in the cinema… Tania Dutel indeed writes her own column where she analyzes the nonsense of this world, always with humour.
Noteworthy appearances at the Montreux Comedy Club
The comedian also distinguished herself on the stage of the Montreux Comedy Club. 4 years ago, she recounted her love troubles and her relationship to the body through the sketch “Seance at the beautician”. “When you’re a woman and you go on stage, you’re judged on how you dress, how you speak, and what you talk about. And the most difficult thing is that we are less funny than men. It has been scientifically proven by… men,” she quipped.
Two years later, on the same stage, she returned with “Has this ever happened to you? “. With a more trashy humor, anything goes. Hygienic protections, debate on the burkini, bad meetings, virginity, religion, DiCaprio… Then, a few months ago, she approached a more personal subject: her family. The daughter of immigrant parents, she explains, among other things, that she learns new words every year. Tiramisu and tsunami are not the same thing. “The shock I had in 2004 when I learned that Thailand had been covered in mascarpone,” she jokes.
The others are us
Tania Dutel now continues with the tour of her show “Les autres”, for which she will be at La Comédie de Toulouse on January 7, 2023. “I only live for others. And you too by the way. Yes, yes, you live for others. Why do you change your clothes every day? You saw well during the confinements that you stayed in your pajamas all day. How much time do you have to plan your wedding table to avoid a civil war? “, she asks in the summary. She will indeed deliver the perfect examples of life for which we are under the gaze of others, bringing her touch that is both fine and trashy.
