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.

Choreographed by Trajal Harrell and performed by the Zürich Dance Ensemble, Caen Amour blurs the line between dance and runway, mixing representation with sharp cultural commentary. The piece draws on the late-19th-century hoochie-coochie and orientalist spectacle, reworking those flamboyant gestures into a transcultural odyssey. Costumes, music and lighting interplay to sculpt a theatrical, sensual atmosphere where movement, pageantry and critique collide, inviting reflection on performance, identity and spectacle.

Pulse is an acrobatic uppercut where breath, rhythm and bodies fuse into a spectacular trance. Created by Cie Kiaï, the piece propels six acrobats into a rebounding space where the laws of gravity seem to dissolve. Set to a hypnotic musical pulse, the performers lift, collide and vibrate in unison in a vertiginous choreography. The staging privileges sensory intensity, blending physical virtuosity, rhythmic precision and immersive soundscapes to deliver a visceral, kinetic experience.
