Led by two experts in visible and invisible heritage, this guided performance turns Saint‑Jean into an urban theatre where archives mingle with legends and personal testimony illuminates shadowed corners. The piece, born of research and encounters, moves between quiet listening and sudden revelations, blurring fact and memory.

11 – 13 March

Choreographed by Jolie Ngemi, Mbok’Elengi transforms the stage into a street: five dancers reimagine Congolese dances, notably the exuberant sebene style. The piece blends contemporary movement and Congolese roots, building cultural bridges through ritual, celebration and resistance. Scenography and lighting shape an ecstatic group party that oscillates between revolt and dream, inviting physical joy and collective catharsis. The performance is non-verbal and driven by rhythm, gesture and communal energy.

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.

In French.

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.

11 – 13 March

Set beneath a neon restaurant sign in a Tirana suburb, this non-verbal theatrical-musical performance stages a son’s interior journey. Mario Banushi invites memories and nostalgia to confront the absence of his father, a cook and tavern owner. Fragmented scenes shift between everyday domesticity and hallucinatory tableaux, exploring grief, silence and unspoken bonds through physicality, music and evocative staging. The work balances intimacy and ritual, drawing the audience into a sparse, haunting world.

12 March – 1 April

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.

Led by conductor Oleg Kaskiv with virtuoso violinist Roby Lakatos, this charity concert presented by Fondation Patiño traces a kaleidoscopic programme from Grieg and Sarasate to Saint-Saëns and Wieniawski, weaving classical forms with folk, klezmer and tango. Arrangements by Lakatos sit alongside Piazzolla’s melancholy tangos and virtuosic showpieces, while eclectic orchestral colours and agile solo lines conjure shifting atmospheres — from intimate lyricism to blazing virtuosity — inviting listeners into a vivid, cross-cultural soundworld.
