“So, the pitch for the show. I’m not going to lie to you, I’m at the bakery in 2 minutes and I’ve just ordered a vegan beef and cheese sandwich.
The truth is, I’d like to define myself, but my shrink would do it better than me. I’d have to untie it in my cellar first. An epicurean of everything. I like talking to trees, a little less when they talk back. (Come on, let’s get on with it or the production team won’t be happy):
I’m an optimistic comedian who… Rolala but who cares really, what’s the point of pitching a show? The only pitch worth having is sold in the brioche section at Lidl in packs of 12.
I’m from Brittany by birth and Toulouse by adoption, so basically I eat chocolatines and listen to Manau. The show is called “Border”. Quite a program. Synesthesia, optimism, life, death, dentures, come and share 1 hour of our lives, we talk about everything.
If you want to laugh at everything and think of nothing, or vice versa, we look forward to seeing you in the room. Good luck making sense of that sentence.
(It’s great to have 3 letters in a row on the keyboard, which makes it homeless. And they managed to fit inside the keyboard).
Optimistic we say.
I’ll leave you to it, the sandwich just arrived.”

Words from the audience (under duress) :
“Clément Bonpoil unleashes his jokes with a Kalashnikov! His humor, sharp but fair, scathing but pertinent, insolent and subtle, is to be discovered as a matter of urgency. From the absurd to singing to criticism of current events, he takes us into a hilarious schizophrenic universe! A great promise for French stand-up!
“Do you know black humor? Open a dictionary and you’ll find the name Clément Bonpoil! This artist takes us into a world of darkness presented with subtlety!”
“With the possible exception of the anorexic Burkinabe dwarfs, everyone gets a kick out of it! Clément unleashes punchlines that make you want to write them down and take them out again, but you don’t have the time, he’s already moved on. A must-see!”
