A solitary man ventures through the desert in search of Prometheus, blaming the gods for igniting a consuming fire within each human. This monologue delves into the connections between ancient tragedy and contemporary turmoil, examining desire and existence through the lenses of love and creation, all in pursuit of an illuminating fire that does not consume.

Two duos meet in an evening of intergenerational jazz dialogue. Alfio Origlio (piano), acclaimed for a vast discography, pairs with Swiss drummer Marc‑Olivier Savoy to move between jazz, classical references and spontaneous improvisation. The Klopfenstein brothers—Mattias (sax) and Pablo (p)—bring youthful energy and tight familial interplay. Together the programmes balance tradition and exploration, weaving lyrical saxophone lines, rhythmic openness and intimate dynamics that invite close listening and a sense of shared musical freedom.

Created and performed by Julian Vogel and written and staged by Roman Müller and Julian Vogel, Ceramic Circus is a solo circus piece conceived like a musical composition. On a circular stage Vogel pedals and skates around a swinging ceramic sphere, layering the crash of plates, drum rolls and rhythmic loops. The staging balances virtuosity and fragility, where feats and deliberate clumsiness create a tense, poetic atmosphere.
Directed by Gloria Grossrieder and Anne Probst, Nelly is a light operetta by Marcel Lattès that mixes romance and mistaken identities. The company’s ensemble — including Hannah Butterworth, Christophe Bitar and Gloria Grossrieder — is supported by a full orchestra under the direction of Maximilien Estrampes. Alice Tchamkerten’s sets and Alicia Roch’s costumes shape a stylish, period-tinted world, while Vincent Miche’s lighting accentuates the comedy’s playful rhythms and coquettish charm.

Based on the Jekyll myth, this theatrical adaptation examines metamorphosis as both physical and social, probing identity, gender and the boundary between good and male/female. Stark black-and-white staging and chiaroscuro lighting evoke twilight and old horror films, while a persistent, slicing fog thickens the atmosphere. The venerable Dr Jekyll’s unsettling experiments unfold in a late-19th-century London laboratory, and his circle is drawn into mounting anguish as transformations accelerate.
