Quatuor Zaïde plunges into Schubert’s luminous yet tormented world with a programme of three cornerstone works that reveal the Romantic composer’s emotional depth: the quartet Death and the Maiden, the song-cycle-inspired Le Roi des Aulnes and Quartet No.13 “Rosemonde”. The string quartet, acclaimed for its finesse and intensity, shapes a suspended experience at the border between dream, pain and beauty, drawing out lyrical lines, dark undercurrents and intimate dialogue among the voices.
L’amour c’est pour du beurre, created and directed by Eline Schumacher, is a tender, bittersweet comedy that follows six damaged characters who rehearse Shakespeare in a gym. Through awkward encounters, hidden wounds and bursts of laughter, the piece explores the need to love and to heal. Schumacher mixes burlesque and social theatre to create intimate moments and joyful chaos, offering an affectionate portrait of human fragility and resilience.

Presented by Les AMAZONES à la Julienne, this satirical comedy upends fairy-tale logic to expose social conventions. A distinguished lecturer’s attempt to rehabilitate classic tales unravels as a sarcastic Witch dismantles founding myths, and heroines from Cinderella to Snow White rebel, bore themselves or awaken sexually. Mixing social satire, dark comedy and biting poetry, the piece stages wild reversals where prey become predators, yielding a hilarious yet cruel portrait of a post–fairy‑tale world that unsettles as it amuses.

Co-created by Pascal Gravat and Julien Mages for Compagnie Revolver, “Nu Vite” (Naked Quickly) is a choreo-biography in which a dancer and an author probe time, ageing and the urgent need to seize each instant. The work blends intimate movement and written testimony, set to music by Pierce Warnecke with sound design by Clive Jenkins and lighting by Alessandra Domingues. The 75‑minute performance explores memory, bodily change and the delicate rhythm between presence and loss.

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.
