At La Commanderie in Dole, Arnaud Tsamere presents “Tous contraints”, a solo show whose starting point is a somewhat forgotten contract.
About this event in the Jura in Dole
A forced return to solo performance
At La Commanderie in Dole, Arnaud Tsamere stars in “Tous contraints”. The show's premise: a hoped-for rest, thwarted by a somewhat “forgotten” contractual commitment.
After the success of “2 mariages et un enterrement”, his masterful portrayal of Cyrano de Bergerac and the triumphant Trio tour, the comedian was looking forward to a well-earned rest. His producer Jérémy Ferrari, however, had other plans: at that time, he had him sign a contract requiring him to take to the stage for one more solo show in 2026/2027.
A €27.2 million clause
According to this introduction to the show, failing to fulfil his contractual obligations leaves Arnaud facing a financial penalty of €27.2 million. This is precisely the part of the contract he has somewhat “forgotten”.
What state will audiences find him in? Is he ready? Is he rich enough to tell Jérémy Ferrari to fuck off? These questions remain at the heart of the announcement, with just one stated certainty: he, like us, is “Tous contraints” — under constraint.
