Jean Ferrarini (piano) and Luca Pagano (guitar) create an intimate piano–guitar conversation rooted in improvisation. Their duo explores contrast and nuance, shaping motifs that surface at the beginning, middle or close of each spontaneous piece. The music emphasizes attentive listening, shifting dynamics and delicate timbres, alternating moments of dense resonance and spare clarity. The result is a contemplative, tactile sound world that invites quiet focus and emotional drift.
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.
Molière’s Tartuffe tells the story of a slick con-man who hides behind ostentatious piety to worm his way into the wealthy Orgon household. Orgon, dazzled by Tartuffe’s sanctimonious rhetoric, defends him even as the impostor’s hypocrisy poisons family bonds and pushes the household toward ruin.
Director Jean Liermier underscores how, in Molière’s work, the female characters serve as the moral compass and spark of resistance, a beacon of hope against oppression. Staged on a stark, minimalist set that exposes the family’s rigid tensions—and featuring Gilles Privat as an unbending Orgon—this production highlights the play’s continuing resonance in a world beset by egotism, fanaticism, and conspiracy thinking. The central question remains timeless: will society keep falling for Tartuffe’s brand of seductive deceit?

Created by Aurélie Hubeau and Lucie Hanoy, L’IMPOSTURE is a comic and poetic exploration of doubt, self-image and belonging. The piece follows a woman who describes herself as too small, obese, ugly and a tomboy, and recounts how she forged an identity in today’s world. Using objects, clothing and puppets manipulated with inventive choreography, the performance weaves humor, poetry and music — from Patrick Bruel to gospel and karaoke — to celebrate difference and question social norms, delivering warmth and poignancy.

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.
