Sol (comedian)

Sol is a fictional character written for and performed on stage and television by the Canadian actor Marc Favreau.

Sol is a clown (tramp type) who handily deconstructs the French language, to the amusement of adults as well as children.

In his stage performances, Sol mostly appeared alone and recited comic monologues dealing with current social and political issues.

Sol began as a regular on La Boîte à surprise, a long-running children's television show on the French language Radio-Canada network.

Sol also appeared on a television series on TVOntario called Parlez-moi, which taught basic French, as it is spoken in Quebec and other parts of Canada.
