Groove’n’Move: Dinosaure

Kids

What if dinosaurs could have predicted their extinction? Dinosaure, created by Santiago Codon Gras and performed by Compagnie D-DaL, blends contemporary fable, science popularisation, and interactive dance. Innocent, dreamlike characters move between animal ballet and physical theatre, reflecting on the demise of the dinosaurs as a metaphor for our times. Bodies in motion collide with words, and the audience is invited to look to the birds—the last descendants of these giants—as symbols of resilience and hope. This performance is part of a collaboration between Florimont’s cultural programme and the Groove’N’Move Festival, celebrating dance and contemporary arts in Geneva.

Ages 6 and up.

Les Dinos et l’Arche – A Darwinian Opera, a Dystopian Fable

Kids Performances

La Cité Bleue

World premiere in French at La Cité Bleue
Music: Thomas Leininger | Libretto: Cédric Costantino & Tina Hartmann

What if the dinosaurs missed Noah’s Ark—not because of a meteorite, but because a sundial was thrown off by the clouds? In this whimsical yet thought-provoking opera, Charles Darwin and his beloved Galápagos iguana travel through time to give dinosaurs a second chance. Boarding a fantastical ship, the creatures set off in search of a magical plant that might transform them into birds and save them from the Flood.

Part satire, part tender fable, Les Dinos et l’Arche brings together humans, animals, and extinct species in a distorted mirror of our own changing society. Through absurd dialogues, wild transformations, and a swirl of humor and emotion, the opera reminds us that survival often demands reinvention.

Directed by Julien Condemine, with musical direction by Leonardo García-Alarcón, and performed by a vibrant cast and a ten-piece ensemble, this visually daring and musically rich production draws on baroque influences to speak to curious minds of all ages.

Kids ages 10 and up.
