Horizons is an intimate dance performance by Riva & Repele that traces the human journey through time, exploring transformation, memory and renewal. Their choreography sculpts poetic landscapes where movement becomes reflection on identity, relationships and the subtle thresholds that shape our lives. The work unfolds as a fluid meditation on growth, connection and loss, inviting audiences to perceive the emotional currents that carry us forward and to contemplate the shifting contours of life.
An exuberant stage adaptation of the beloved macabre comedy, The Addams Family plunges into dark humour, family dynamics and absurdity.

Intimate moments alternate with full-cast set pieces, creating a contrast between tenderness and the bizarre. Expect a richly textured theatrical world that celebrates outsider identity and affectionate satire.

Actor Samuel Labarthe turns Nicolas Bouvier’s fever-drenched memoir The Scorpion-Fish into a hypnotic, miniaturist tour de force: marooned in 1950s Ceylon after a headlong road trip from Geneva through the Balkans and Afghanistan, the once-ebullient traveller spirals into tropical delirium, trading human company for buzzing insects, mirage-bright visions and mordant humour that flits between the sublime and the grotesque. Under Catherine Schaub’s finely gauged direction, Labarthe channels both the lush lyricism and the slow-burn torment of this “motionless voyage,” distilling Bouvier’s languid prose into a tactile, rejuvenating elixir that lets the audience feel every bead of sweat, jolt of wonder and sting of isolation.
In French. Ages 12 and up.
Winter of Caecilia gathers seven local theatre productions that revisit contemporary and classic forms through monologue and solo performance. Artists such as Nastassja Tanner, Ahmed Belbachir, Roland Vouilloz and Vincent Jacquet offer intimate, visceral interpretations, while texts by playwrights like Fabrice Melquiot are brought to life under directors including Jean‑Yves Ruf. The programme mixes poetic, comic and physically charged pieces that privilege sensory staging and emotional immediacy, inviting audiences into distinct, singular theatrical universes.

Nine exiled Afghan actresses and their director turn Sophocles’ Antigone into a luminous act of defiance, weaving their own flight from tyranny into a fluid chorus that moves between whispered poetry and blazing resolve; on a moon-lit set where shadows ripple across a reflective pool, their shared fervour collides with oppression’s darkness, conjuring a present-tense theatre of resistance performed in Dari (with French subtitles) that pulses with the courage, grace and unbroken spirit of women who refuse to fall silent.
In Dari, with french subtitles. Ages 14 and up.
