Sous la peau

Written by Valérie Poirier and directed by Tamara Fischer, Sous la peau follows two archaeologists — Élisabeth, 60, and Lucien, 28 — as they uncover a 7,000-year-old skeleton on a construction site. Across generations and worldviews, their excavation becomes a poetic exploration of transmission, discovery, and the deeper connections that link humanity through time.

Sono Io? by Circus Ronaldo

Performances

Chapiteau du Centre sportif des Vergers

A poetic and intimate performance that moves away from traditional circus spectacles focused on acrobatics. Blending elements of commedia dell’arte with the absurdity of Waiting for Godot, the show follows father and son, Danny and Pepijn, as they navigate memory, absence, and connection. Rich in music, clowning, and humor, the piece creates moments of grace and sensitivity, reflecting on tradition, relationships, and the world around them.

3 mecs au bol

Performances

Théâtricul

Trois mecs au bol is a surreal, offbeat creation by Lorin Kopp, Steven Matthews, and Mirko Verdesca, who also perform on stage. Blending absurd humour, music, and a touch of the grotesque, the show questions what it means to grow up in a world where absurdity has become the new normal. Written “à plat tôt” by three clowns unaware of their own kinship, it’s a three-voiced chant to tame their demons – and perhaps yours, the one that slowly creeps in and gnaws from the inside.

In French.
