    "Qu'est-ce qu'il y a à la télé ce soir ?
    Non mais qu'est-ce que c'est que ce truc ?."

    'Le Zappeur est un spectacle original à l'humour décalé écrit et imaginé en grande partie par les élèves du workshop et inspiré par plusieurs sketch comiques de la télévision française la plus récente (Palmashow, La Flamme). Un homme rentre chez lui et se met devant son téléviseur. Attendez-vous à un moment télévisé tout en couleurs.'

    Après deux ans sans spectacles, mais quinze ans de cours de théâtre en Français à Londres, Le Workshop retrouve enfin les planches ! Pour ce groupe de débutants, ils rejoignent les rares groupes d'élèves qui se sont lancés dans la création collective depuis Ailes Blessées en 2016, et En quête d'auteur en 2018.

    "What's on tv tonight?
    What is this thing?"


    'Le Zappeur is a new piece of writing with a dark humour, mostly written and imagined by the students of le workshop and inspired by different recent French comedy tv shows. A man gets home and sits in front of the television: You can only expect to spend an hour full of colourful tv moments. After two years without being able to perform, but 15 years of teaching drama in French in London, Le Workshop is back on stage! For this beginner group, they join the rare students who dared showcasing a devised piece such as Ailes Blessées in 2016, and En quête d'auteur in 2018
