The performance mixes sharp observations, self-deprecating wit and moments of genuine tenderness as the comedian explores fear of other people’s gaze and small everyday oddities. An introspective journey unfolds — including a memorable story about a pigeon in a bin — producing gentle, hopeful laughter.

Focus Jeune Création brings together a new generation of Romand artists over two weeks, presenting five bold and hybrid performances that blur theatre, performance and live art.

Accompanying meetings and discussions extend the works and open insight into creative processes.
Adapted freely from Maryse Condé and Emily Brontë, this theatrical adaptation follows Razyé and Cathy across three generations in a post-emancipation Guadeloupe. Directed by Anne Monfort, the production probes themes of racism, passion, pride, social violence, vengeance and fatalism through a visceral, rhythmic staging. The ensemble uses sparse, evocative design and intense physical interplay to reveal how inherited trauma shapes desire and retribution.
