The Call of the Forest in Geneva Music

Featuring harpist Julie Campiche, this musical-vegetal immersion traces how the urban forests around Geneva have shaped local soundscapes. Combining live harp, recorded sounds, video fragments and spoken stories, the performance moves between delicate textures and untamed echoes, evoking roots, caves and rivers that feed musical imagination. Presented in conjunction with the exhibition SAUVAGES by Claude Barras, it offers a contemplative, sensory journey that blends ecological memory with intimate live music.

Victor Delétraz’s solo investigates image and the moving body across past, present and future, probing the vulnerability of human pursuits and the tension between hidden and visible. Video interweaves with choreography, found objects, light, sound and text to create a fragmented, anachronistic structure where multiple voices, at once comic, cartoony, political and dramatic, collide. The presentation, framed within the festival C’est déjà demain, emphasizes exploration and the beginnings of artistic form.

21 April – 3 May

Pères is a poetic ensemble piece directed by Lefki Papachrysostomou that interrogates fatherhood today. Texts by Julie Annen, Nicolas Tavaglione and Miguel Fernandez‑V are embodied by four actors — Dimitri Anzules, Angelo Dell’Aquila, Serge Martin and Jef Saintmartin — and framed by an all‑female creative team. 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.

21 April – 2 May

Directed by Françoise Courvoisier, this theatrical adaptation stages two periods of Grisélidis Réal’s life simultaneously, split between a dignified elder confronting illness and a vibrant earlier self. Martine Schambacher and Françoise Courvoisier embody these contrapuntal figures; assistant director Léa Déchamboux supports the staging. Natacha Jaquerod’s set, Rinaldo Del Boca’s lighting and Nicolas Le Roy’s sound design sculpt intimate, lyrical atmospheres. Drawing on Grisélidis’s letters, the piece blends lyricism and fury into a raw, elegiac portrait of life and writing.

21 – 25 April

Baptiste Cazaux presents a fragmented physical dance work that upends the senses. As choreographer and performer, Cazaux sculpts an explosive, hyperkinetic body that collides gestures, styles and sonic fragments like a DJ scratching samples. That’s Twisted mixes pop hymn nostalgia from the 2010s with a psychedelic collage of movement and sound, destabilising time, affect and perception. The piece traces contemporary melancholy and seeks transcendence through layered rhythms, distorted textures and sudden shifts in intensity. Création 2026, coproduction.
