FURTHER AFIELD

The choreographic duo SoulMagnet reimagines celebration as an act of resistance and emancipation in an augmented recreation of their seminal piece. Joined by two dancers, a DJ and a live video artist, they weave a dialogue between disciplines: dance for collective osmosis, music for pulse, and live video as contemporary lighting—intimate viewpoint, mise en abyme or collective memory. Together they propose an ecology of human connection, a contemporary ritual that reconnects bodies to agency and reveals the subversive power of the dancefloor.

Amor follows a forty‑something couple, attached yet weary from routine, confronting unspoken truths and the pull toward emancipation. This intimate, humanist theatre piece probes love’s contradictions—between inherited models and contemporary norms—through subtle staging and concentrated performances. Marjolaine Minot and Guillaume Prin embody the emotional shifts with delicate nuance, drawing the audience into a relational interior where choices, desire and restraint collide.

Born in Rio de Janeiro, Bella Nobre grew up immersed in music alongside her father, a musician and producer, shaping an early universe between soul and tropicalism. After success in Brazil she settled in Switzerland, forming a tight ensemble for a colourful, festive live project driven by collective energy. Noted on stages such as the Montreux Jazz Club, she emerges as an authentic, bold and internationally minded artist whose performances blend warmth, rhythm and luminous vocals.

4 – 13 October

Celebrating Chopin’s lyricism, passion and refinement, this festival presents a sequence of solo recitals, chamber concerts and a dedicated masterclass. Performers include pianists Paweł Wakarecy, Mertol Demirelli, Adam Kałduński, Krzysztof Wierciński and Mateusz Krzyżowski, alongside cellist Marcin Zdunik and the Quintette Éphémère. The programming favours intimate pacing and refined rubato, with attention to phrasing and tonal colour. Expect moments of poetic introspection and virtuosic brilliance, where clear, luminous sound and careful dynamics shape a contemplative, emotionally direct experience.

15 September – 11 October

Directed by Françoise Courvoisier, this production of Anton Chekhov’s Oncle Vania — translated by Arthur Adamov — assembles a committed ensemble (Vincent Bonillo, Pierre Dubey, Bérangère Mastrangelo, Patricia Mollet-Mercier, Clarisse Morizot, Pierre Omer, Juliana Samarine, Edmond Vuilloud) to explore love, the passage of time and illusions lost. The staging, created with scenographer Gilbert Maire and painter André Kasper, uses Rinaldo Del Boca’s lighting, Pierre Omer’s music and Nicolas Le Roy’s sound to evoke both the comedy and the terrifying humanity of Chekhov.

In French.

9 – 16 October

Music and songs by Stephen Sondheim with a libretto by George Furth and a French translation by Stéphane Laporte. This intimate, razor-sharp musical follows Robert (Bobby), a charming New Yorker confronting bachelorhood, friendship and the compromises of coupledom. The production blends incisive lyrics, lively choreography and a close ensemble cast to reveal joyful neuroses, hidden desires and fragile bonds. The staging alternates warmth and irony, inviting reflection on love, loneliness and the elusive art of staying together.

Sung in English; dialogues in French.

15 September – 11 October

A darkly comic solo play about obsession and domestic chaos. When Michel finds a rare record he has long sought, he prepares a perfect hour to listen — but family, neighbours and a drip that will wreck the disc steadily intrude. The piece skewers selfishness with sharp humour and precise staging, combining intimate realism and heightened farce to probe human smallness and the desperate desire for solitude.

In French.
