Ronchon l’teigneux is a spirited adaptation of Menander’s Dyskolos by the Groupe de Théâtre Antique de l’Université de Neuchâtel. Performed outdoors in a garden setting, this lively staging uses a colloquial translation to blend ancient comedy with contemporary energy. The ensemble favours physical humour, tight timing and convivial tableaux to explore stubbornness, love and comic misunderstandings, culminating in a communal-feast atmosphere that amplifies the play’s social warmth.

Created collectively with SCÈNE ACTIVE, this all-ages performance was devised by around forty young people facing school dropout, guided by a professional artistic team. The Season XI ensemble crafted a fantastical fable exploring friendship, bereavement, addiction, imposed norms, acceptance of difference and consent. Staged in a rich, imaginative world, displaced characters — a demon among mermaids, a princess and a pirate among fairies, a guardian of the fairies in the castle of the Underworld — confront an army of demons as they seek a way home.

Brigade financière stages a tense, chamber drama by Hugues Leforestier that confronts the logic of contemporary finance. Under Antony Mettler’s direction, Christian Gregori and Maria Mettral embody a sharp, cerebral duel between a financial crimes commissioner and an accused executive. Christian Gregori also signs scenography and costumes while Florian Cuellar sculpts the lighting. The production blends police-procedural suspense with satirical intelligence, probing power, privilege and the contradictions of today’s economic system.

Nidâ is an amateur music group based in Geneva that performs songs from the cultures and languages of Anatolia: Turkish, Kurdish, Zazaki, Arabic, Greek, Armenian, Georgian, Balkan, and more. Their musical approach aims to fuse traditional folk music with contemporary ethnic music and to create harmony through the instruments they use.
Celebrating the Undertones’ 50-year legacy, this punk double bill pairs the Northern Irish veterans with Geneva’s Asphalt for a night of raw energy. The Undertones bring their tight, hook-driven songwriting—anchored by the echo of “Teenage Kicks”—while Asphalt channels arcade-era grit and bel canto-inflected shouts, featuring players from Armure, Allusion, The Chisel and Branlarians. Presented in collaboration with Le Rez and Roosevelt Sports Club, the concert oscillates between singalong immediacy and feral momentum, a visceral reminder of punk’s communal power.
