The actor Jérôme Batteux has always liked to change his skin, while wishing to remain himself : “Because there comes a time when it is enough to always want to please everyone, to do your best to fit into boxes, to find the acceptable compromise between yourself and others. I remembered my childhood dreams: to become a world star, to become Madonna. I called a makeup artist friend. I asked him to transform me. She painted my mouth. And I suddenly felt free. This is exactly what this show is. A space of freedom. A mix of Pop music, folk, glitter and shamelessness too, a lot. But don’t believe. It’s sincere. From head to toe “.
