Welcome to the cabaret of Baron P. Cock, a flamboyant, baroque Drag King persona. Behind the curtain hide thousands... sorry, hundreds... well, dozens... All right: two "things"... They do not sing, they do not dance, but they perform the lyrics of the songs you choose with an incomparable sense of drama!
At every performance, the audience suggests song titles and shares what the lyrics evoke: an emotion, a memory, a situation, an image... These few words become the raw material for improvised scenes in which the best-known choruses take completely unexpected turns.
In this timeless cabaret, improvisations converse with Drag King acts, intertwining, responding to one another and blurring the boundaries between disciplines. Baron P. Cock leads the revue with panache, accompanied by his two enigmatic "things", in an atmosphere as elegant as it is extravagant. Here, Patrick Sébastien can be performed like an Audiard film, Aya Nakamura can find herself in Antiquity, and a love song can become a Shakespearean tragedy. Every act reinvents the lyrics from a fresh perspective: funny, absurd, poetic or utterly offbeat.
Paroles, paroles... invites you to rediscover the songs you thought you knew by heart.
Combining the energy of cabaret, the freedom of improvisation and the boldness of Drag King, the show surprises, entertains and proves that sometimes a change of interpretation is all it takes to tell an entirely different story...
