The experience is both exuberant and intimate, inviting shared movement and attentive listening.

6 – 15 March

Succès Reprise is a sparkling vaudeville that blurs the line between theatrical comedy and the comedy of everyday life. A charming love triangle performed by a tight trio of actors unfolds through rapid-fire exchanges, physical gags and shifting misunderstandings. The staging favours bright pace and playful timing, delivering light-hearted warmth while revealing awkward human impulses and social foibles. The piece leaves a lingering smile and a sense of affectionate irony.

6 & 7 March

Lokos Festival gathers emerging local bands in a raw, communal rock spirit. The programme spotlights young ensembles such as BLAYWEZZ, TEMPLOW, THE HOODS OFF, PROJET WIPEOUT, ANGUILLE SOUS MANGUE and ARCANE, each offering energetic sets that blend garage grit, melodic hooks and experimental textures. Curated by a collective of scene producers, the evening emphasizes live intensity, rough-edged sonorities and audience proximity, shifting between urgent rhythms and quieter, atmospheric moments—an intimate snapshot of a rising musical scene.

5 – 14 March

In a Swiss adaptation of Georg Büchner’s novella “Lenz,” this musical ceremony delves into themes of loss and mourning. Three musicians pay tribute to the character Lenz, set against a backdrop reminiscent of mountains and an inner void. Blending the Alpine horn, folklore, and Fauré’s Requiem with Büchner’s words, the event explores madness, brotherhood, and hope. Through inner landscapes and traditional sounds, the celebration gently illuminates human fragility.

4 – 6 March, 19:30

At La Cité Bleue, Bach and the Bible is a powerful and intimate performance by director Omar Porras and pianist Cédric Pescia. The show weaves together sacred biblical texts and Bach’s keyboard music, exploring the deep spiritual dialogue between word and sound. Porras voices the Gospels, Psalms, and prophecies, while Pescia delivers a luminous, heartfelt interpretation of Bach’s meditations.

Neither a recital nor a theatrical reading, the performance invites audiences—believers or not—to rediscover the universal spiritual depth of Bach’s music rooted in the Bible, creating a moving journey of meaning, beauty, and silence.

3 – 15 March

Revived by director Ninon Fachard after the original staging by Véronique Ros de la Grange, this solo piece stars Jacques Michel with Caroline Gasser as the prompter. Lighting by Rinaldo Del Boca and music by Alain Lamarche carve intimate, shadowed spaces around a red sequined curtain. Makeup by Natalia Lepianka and costumes by Emilie Revel shape the fading glamour of a music‑hall star who soliloquises, recalls past glory and loss, and sings in playback—an inward plunge toward memory and survival.
