21 April – 10 May

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.

Pères is a poetic ensemble piece directed by Lefki Papachrysostomou that interrogates fatherhood today.

Lighting by Claire Firmann, sound by Frédérique Jarabo and costumes by Lys Tell shape intimate scenes that alternate tenderness, duty and strain. The work explores filiation, grief and gratitude with rigorous stagecraft and quiet intensity.

Choreographed by Riccardo Ardusso with supervision by Ilaria Giardina, this Swiss premiere fuses contemporary dance and modern orchestral repertoire. Renowned Ensemble Sinfonietta Bern anchors the programme with music from 20th and 21st‑century composers, while Ardusso’s choreography translates sonic textures into sculpted movement. The creative approach blends lyrical neoclassical vocabulary with contemporary gestures, framed by immersive lighting and sound design that shape shifting moods. The result is a tactile, introspective evening where music and bodies coalesce into a new perception of neoclassical language.
