Lou Trotignon

Booking Required

Lou Trotignon tells, with humour and candour, a personal story of transition: from starting testosterone and playful strip-tease to the discovery of queer communities. The show blends stand-up and performative moments to gently question gender norms, the relationship to the body and the ways we love. Intimate and often funny, the piece combines raw testimony and theatrical staging to invite reflection and warmth. Presented by Caustic Comedy Club.

TRIIT gathers improvisers from Geneva, Vaud, Valais, Neuchâtel and Fribourg in a spirited inter-cantonal tournament of theatrical improvisation.

The creative focus oscillates between comic risk-taking and moments of honest surprise, with dynamic pacing and responsive staging shaping the drama. The atmosphere is competitive yet communal, a celebration of linguistic agility and shared theatrical invention.

Directed as an in situ promenade, this performance follows two protagonists, P. and B., through the city’s hidden seams. B. conspires to seed an exuberant vegetal uprising, mastering invasive plants to unsettle urban order. P. slips into the city’s blind spots, picking locks and slipping through barriers to reveal alternative ways of inhabiting public space. The show mixes physical theatre, poetic staging and ecological imagination to explore rewilding, intimacy and civic subversion.

Fiona G. brings a razor-sharp solo hour of dark, observational stand-up that mixes Swiss deadpan with Parisian stage instincts. Fluent in several languages and armed with a precise sarcasm, she navigates subjects from everyday rituals to taboo topics with a playful cruelty and agile improvisation. The piece is a work-in-progress that plays with ego, irony and timing, offering unpredictable moments that pivot between biting malice and sudden tenderness.

Under the dual leadership of Sergey Ostrovsky, who conducts and performs as violin soloist, this closing concert presents Johannes Brahms’s Violin Concerto, Op. 77, alongside Felix Mendelssohn’s Symphony No. 3, Op. 56 “Scottish”. The program juxtaposes Brahms’s warm, introspective lyricism with Mendelssohn’s sweeping, evocative landscapes, offering a journey from intimate soloistic detail to full orchestral grandeur. Expect finely shaped phrases, radiant string tone and dramatic contrasts that highlight both virtuosity and poetic depth.
