British Comedy Guide, 25th February 2022Marcel Lucont: the 'French comic' the UK love to hate
"When I was growing up, I always found so many aspects of British culture odd, when no one else did... the repression of the English, the xenophobia, the beige food..." explains Alexis Dubus, the British comedian better known by his stage name, Marcel Lucont.
Catherine Rickman, Frenchly, 7th July 2021Brighton Fringe review - Marcel Lucont
Dubus has created a wonderful grotesque character who the audience laughs heartily at, even though he insults us at every turn. The chides are so inventive and funny you cannot help but giggle. Even in torrential rain the night proves to have that winning formula. This is a Brighton Fringe must see.
