Both a historian and a humorist, Manon Bril has established itself through its YouTube channel It's another story, where she revisits history and mythology with an offbeat tone and a lot of humor.
In her first single-scene, 300 000 years, she transposes this universe on stage through a rhythmic stand-up that questions with malice the received ideas and shows that many traditions that we believe immutable are actually the fruit of social constructions.
Carried by an overflowing energy, Manon Bril takes the public on a journey through the times, punctuated by unusual anecdotes and references to popular culture. We discover, for example, that some important debates of ancient Rome were held... in public toilets!
With a keen sense of narration and a powerful sense of humor, she shakes up clichés and proves that it is quite possible to learn history with a laugh.
