My name is Arnaud. I’m going to perform in the Trio show with Baptiste and Jérémy. I’ve been tasked with writing the pitch for the show. As I write these lines, I have no idea what it’s going to be.

Baptiste will follow me blindly because he loves me. Jérémy will yell at me. Because he’s an idiot. But one thing’s for sure: you’re going to laugh a lot. And so will we.
