Sparse, luminous textures and sudden intensities evoke intimacy and longing, transporting listeners through moments of reflection and improvised discovery.
More than simple program announcements, these events are true theatrical “green flashes” — moments of celebration linking the end of one season to the start of the next.

The audience is invited on a playful and spectacular journey into the creative heart of the theatre, to relive its highlights, secrets, and emotions — each evening, of course, concluding with a vibrant round of applause.
