Led by conductor Laurent Zufferey, this gala illuminates the virtuosic voices of the laureates of the Geneva Junior Music Competition.

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.

Rock on Stage Classic is an event offering musicians of all skill levels the chance to perform on stage, guided by André Schmid, the former lead singer of the Geneva band Ça va chier. Participants can perform solo, with their own accompanists, or be supported by a team of professional musicians.
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.
