Booking Required

Amours impossibles follows a cross-border couple: she holds a passport and freedom of movement, he remains confined to the Palestinian territories where he was born. Valentine Sergo’s text and Laure Hirsig’s direction weave intimate scenes of travel, checkpoints and urgent messages into a meta-theatrical reflection on authorship. Wissam Arbache and Valentine Sergo embody a love shaped by geopolitics, while an enigmatic grandmother figure evokes collective memory and mischief through the performance’s layered storytelling.

Paul de Saint Sernin

Performances

Théâtre de la Madeleine

Paul de Saint Sernin’s stand-up programme, written and performed by the artist, blends sharp comedic timing with candid memories of adolescence, humiliations and personal fears. Directed by Grégoire Dey, the staging relies on intimate storytelling, subtle physicality and pared-down mise-en-scène to turn vulnerability into laughter. The show plays with rhythm and self-questioning, offering a warm yet probing portrait of growing up in a voice both confessional and wry.

Le Dieu du carnage

Performances

Théâtre Pitoëff

Directed by Elidan Arzoni, this fiery, hilarious staging of Yasmina Reza’s play follows two couples whose polite attempt to resolve a quarrel between their sons collapses into a savage verbal carnage. Performers Sophie Broustal, Vincent Jacquet, Camille Édith Bouzaglo and Frédéric Landenberg unleash sharp, tightly wound exchanges, while Benoît Delaunay’s scenography and Hervé Broillet’s costumes frame escalating social fractures. Danielle Milovic’s lighting and meticulous stagecraft intensify a darkly comic exploration of civility, hypocrisy and unleashed instincts.

La Demande en mariage et l’ours

Performances

Théâtre de Carouge

Two short plays by Anton Chekhov staged by Tibor Ockenfels and Flavie Tapparel, presented as compact dramatic machines where romantic comedy masks escalating confrontations between desire, affection and material interest. Performances rely on precise physical timing, terse exchanges and a lean, playful design to reveal the simmering violence behind courtship rituals. The three actors — Estelle Bridet, Matteo Prandi and Raphaël Vachoux — inhabit heightened character types that shift between farce and darker comic truth, creating a sharply observed, kinetic evening.
