Directed by Françoise Courvoisier, Les Glycines is a new creation by the TAC ensemble that examines the theme of madness through comic and reflective lenses. Performers including Nicole Aubert, Loulou Morisod, Catherine Vaucher, Zamila Yunus, Patrice von Büren, Claude Morex and Daniel Mouchet use improvised confidences to weave reality and fantasy. The staging blends intimacy and humour, shaping a tailored theatrical work for this company. Produced by Les Amis – Le Chariot.

Over three days, a local conservatory opens for a diverse Fête de la musique programme that explores jazz, chamber music, orchestral classes, electroacoustic creations, opera fragments, percussion, guitar, strings and pop-rock workshops. Performances range from intimate recitals to ensemble pieces, highlighting emerging students and guest artists. The programme is designed for all audiences, offering varied atmospheres from contemplative listening to rhythmic celebration, and showcasing both tradition and contemporary experimentation.
On a triple bill by the Ballet Junior de Genève, three new works unfold: Yuval Pick’s Revoada, Émilie Leriche’s sad game and Sharon Eyal & Gai Behar’s Untitled Black. The company moves with collective intensity, shifting between taut physicality and lyrical surges. Pick teases singularity through vibrant movement, Leriche propels the dancers into precise, breathless lyricism, and Eyal/Behar impose a hypnotic, technically demanding finale. The evening is charged, communal and viscerally alive.
