Choreographer Cindy Van Acker brings Iannis Xenakis’s Pléïades to the stage, assembling five dancers, six percussionists from the Eklekto collective and a large percussion arsenal. Van Acker shapes a moving percussion landscape where bodies confront the score’s power and complexity, constantly shifting posture and relation to sound. Music is played live; scenography and lighting by Victor Roy frame waves, galaxies and whirlwinds in a rigorous, visceral performance. Creation 2026; coproduction.
Ingrid Hansen, a puppet artist from the Jim Henson Company (Fraggle Rock, Sesame Workshop), stages a surreal cabaret of illusions and absurd comedy. The variety show is led by Florence, a mischievous grandmother figure, and mixes bold cinematic video, close‑ups of everyday objects projected large, puppetry and daring sleights to create impertinent, often erotic vignettes. The piece juxtaposes tactile puppet performance with live filmic effects to produce surprising, humorous and uncanny moments.

Hend Jouda performs a powerful Arabic reading that traces the experience of war, precarity and the fragile hope of renewal. Her voice, carried among intimate anecdotes and universal gestures, fragments everyday life while carving a poetic space. Translator and collaborator Henri Jules Julien provides a reflective translation and outside perspective, and Youness Atbane shapes the sound environment to heighten textures and silence. Presented with French surtitles, the performance balances urgency and tenderness.
Lost love, mistaken identities, and non-stop laughs collide in The Servant of Two Masters, presented by the English language theatre in Geneva. In this fast-paced classic by Carlo Goldoni—adapted by Lee Hall—hungry servant Truffaldino attempts to serve two masters at once, only to unleash a whirlwind of comic chaos. Sharp, physical, and irresistibly funny, this is classic comedy with a contemporary bite.

Written by Penda Diouf and staged by Evelyne Castellino, LA GRANDE OURSE is an ecofeminist fable that traces a mother’s descent after a minor incident becomes criminalized. Combining video, choreographed movement and choral voices, the piece weaves police violence, racism and sexism into a hallucinatory, dystopian world where omnipresent surveillance watches every gesture. As the heroine reconnects with ancestral nature by transforming into a bear, the production evokes animal survival instinct, collective gossip and the fragile line between humanity and wildness, offering a visceral, poetic reflection on power and resistance.
