The Toulouse director is therefore on the lookout for young talent. In particular, he directs the “Jack said…” theater classes, but from January 2023, Lionel Latapie is organizing the very first Comedy Club for young people from Toulouse in Mama Shelter.
The principle of the Comedy Club is to offer young people and adolescents aged between 7 and 14 years old the opportunity to go on stage. As in American-style stand-ups, the talents could do their number lasting four to five minutes solo, without decor or props.
