Performances

Sous-Moulin

Booking Required

Created and performed by the Patin libre troupe, Murmuration stages 15 skaters as a single, fluid organism inspired by the collective dynamics of bird flocks. At breakneck speed the ensemble executes precise, chain-reaction choreographies that merge virtuosity and risk. The piece explores harmony and antagonism within groups, alternating moments of breathtaking synchronization with fragile, intimate passages. Bold staging and relentless momentum offer a sensory, kinetic experience that blurs dance and spectacle.

Comme un Lundi – improvised theatre

Performances

Théâtre des Grottes

Created by the company Alliance Créative, COMME UN LUNDI is a fully improvised theatre piece that probes the textures of modern work life. The five performers — Nina Cachelin, Deborah Chirenti, Malik Kaufmann, Adrien Laplana and Eric Lecoultre — conjure shifting office micro-worlds, from awkward ambition to quiet complicity. Through rapid character shifts, minimalist staging and elastic rhythm, the troupe maps rivalries, unspoken desires and the absurdity of ‘bullshit jobs’, producing moments both comic and quietly unsettling.

Live they balance intimate, melancholic passages with sudden, cathartic eruptions, where close-knit interplay and textural layering create an enveloping sonic atmosphere. The set privileges rhythmic play, vocal contrasts and raw emotional intensity, offering a concentrated, immersive concert experience that reflects the group’s restless, uncompromising outlook.

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.

Trajal Harrell / Zürich Dance Ensemble — Caen Amour

Performances

Pavillon ADC

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.
