Act 5

What Act 5 does

Acte 5 (legal entity: SARL Acte 5) is a privately held, family-owned event communication agency headquartered in Strasbourg, France. The company operates three integrated service lines: (1) Événementiel — custom corporate event design, planning, and staging including conventions, seminars, team buildings, inaugurations, gala evenings, and company anniversaries; (2) Spectacle d'entreprise — custom comedy, magic, and musical entertainment for corporate, association, and public-sector events; and (3) Design Graphique — creative visual design and print-ready communication materials. The company's most distinctive asset is the Revue Scoute, an annual satirical cabaret show that has run continuously since 1974 and tours 10 venues across Alsace each season with approximately 70 performances drawing 35,000+ spectators.

The underlying technology stack is minimal: a Next.js website with Sanity CMS hosted on Vercel, with no proprietary platform, no mobile applications, no AI/ML components, and no disclosed integrations. Business operations are human-driven, centered on artistic performance, in-person event production, and direct client relationships. The company employs approximately 6 people across management, artistic direction, finance, and event project management functions.

Commercially, Acte 5 operates a sales-led, direct-contact go-to-market with quote-based pricing on all custom services and no public price list. Revenue streams include professional services fees for corporate event projects, recurring ticket sales for Revue Scoute performances through venue box offices and online ticketing (Weezevent), and corporate entertainment engagements for CSE committees and associations. Customer segments span French regional enterprises, public institutions and local governments, associations, and consumer ticket buyers. The company has no external investors, no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no funding history, operating as an independent family business under gérant Daniel Chambet-Ithier and Directrice d'agence Brinbelle Chambet.

Core offering

Act 5 is a Strasbourg-based event communication agency that designs and produces custom-made corporate events — including seminars, conventions, conferences, incentive events and product launches — across Alsace and the Grand Est region. The agency also programs and produces live corporate entertainment, anchored by the long-running satirical cabaret Revue Scoute (revue satirique alsacienne et alsacien-germanophone), and provides graphic design services to create the visual universe of each event (logos, scenography, print and digital supports). Each project is end-to-end: conception, scenography, production and delivery, executed by a small in-house team.

Product overview

The company offers three integrated core services: (1) Événementiel — custom event planning and execution for corporate events; (2) Spectacle d'entreprise — custom comedy and entertainment show production; and (3) Design Graphique — graphic design for communication materials.
