Ultra Saucisse

Ultra Saucisse is a bold puppet-theatre piece by Delphine Bouvier and Fanny Brunet that follows Charlie, an eight-year-old chipolata caught in the vicious cycle of school bullying. Performed with live table puppetry and music, the duo manipulates a menagerie of sausage marionettes to balance humour and gravity. The staging features scenography and object work by Fredy Porras, lighting by Claire Firmann, costumes by Irène Schlatter and an original song by Emmanuel Villié, offering a poetic, empowering experience for young audiences.

Directed by Céline Goormaghtigh and written by Anne Berest, LA VISITE probes maternal instinct with sharp humour and urgent intensity. In a compact domestic setting, a young mother at the limits of endurance confronts visitors while her defenses dissolve; a trio of actresses whirl and collide, delivering a caustic torrent of language and revealing movement. The work explores ‘matraissance’—the birth of motherhood—balancing lucidity, rage and tenderness to unsettle familiar myths about maternal bliss.
