Comedians born in Amiens

Capital of the Somme department and historic heart of Picardy, Amiens is a northern French city crowned by the largest Gothic cathedral in France, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Its canal-woven Saint-Leu quarter and floating market gardens, the hortillonnages, lend it a watery charm, and the writer Jules Verne made it his home. That cultural richness supports theatres and venues where live comedy finds a stage.
