26 May – 7 June

Directed by François Marin, this intimate staging examines the fraught passion between Martin Heidegger and Hannah Arendt against the moral upheavals of Nazi Germany. Mario Diament’s text, adapted by André Nerman, traces a forbidden love between a philosopher and his student, probing complicity, memory and the struggle to reconcile heart and conscience. Sabrina Martin and Frank Semelet inhabit the roles with spare, intense performances, supported by a precise, austere mise en scène that foregrounds emotional conflict and ethical ambiguity.

Can we truly take advantage of everything?
After a serious accident, Georges, a real estate developer, finds himself trapped in Frida and Micheline’s apartment at 13 rue Lepic in Paris, in the building that houses his real estate company.

19 May – 7 June

Directed by Claude Vuillemin, Yasmina Reza’s Trois versions de la vie assembles four performers, Laurent Deshusses, Marie Druc, Sophie Lukasik and Nicolas Rossier, in a taut, virtuosic staging. Lighting by Rinaldo Del Boca and costumes by Sylvie LĂ©pine shape shifting domestic realities as the play probes how social veneer fractures intimate relationships. This production by Les Amis – Le Chariot demands precision and emotional nuance from its cast.

3 – 5 June

Samir Kennedy and Sean Murray present “It’s got legs!!!!!!” at Maison Saint-Gervais. Their performance delves into economic, social, and intimate precarity by engaging with femininity, masculinity, liminal identities, and queer existentialism. Embracing a DIY aesthetic, recycled objects, and theatrical machinery, they craft a raw microcosm for a bold, subversive revue that explores the dizzying complexity of existence.

4 – 6 June

Choreographers and performers Katerina Andreou and Mélissa Guex devise SHOUT TWICE as a physical, hybrid concert-performance where the body and voice become material. The piece transforms raw cries into collective energy, mixing movement, vocal textures and improvised dynamics. Intense and immediate, the work invites shared ritual, opening space for excess, play and communal release. The staging is nomadic and non-verbal, driven by bodily resonance and embodied sound.

Thursday 4 June, 20:00

Thierry Lhermitte presents an original creation by Charles PĂ©pin, inspired by his essay “La rencontre, une philosophie”. Blending readings, literature, philosophy, poetry, film dialogue, and music, the performance explores the many forms of human connection—romantic, friendly, professional, spiritual, and artistic. It is a moving philosophical journey that reflects on how encounters can transform us and reveal who we are.
