Customers at the comedy club Le Speaker were especially lucky this weekend... While in Lyon to perform his show at the Bourse du Travail from September 10 to 14, comedian Gad Elmaleh made an unexpected and impromptu stop at Le Speaker on Saturday, September 14, to try out some new jokes for a small audience. This surprise visit came about after a challenge thrown down with his friend Harold Barbé, who was opening for him, leading to this spontaneous performance. «They challenged each other to write a 10-minute set and come test it out », shared Audric Feuillye, the director of Le Speaker, in comments collected by Tribune de Lyon.

The audience, who obviously weren't aware of this surprise visit, was completely blown away. Harold Barbé kicked off the evening before introducing Gad Elmaleh, leaving everyone in a state of shock. “They couldn't believe it. Gad rocked the room with an amazing set,” recalls Audric, still buzzing from the excitement.
Once he finished his test set, the comedian hurriedly jumped into a car to head to the Bourse du Travail, change, and get ready to hit the stage for his evening performance. It was a totally unexpected evening that will be etched in the memories of the lucky ones who were there at the Speaker!
