These two evenings present the work of Anna-Marija Adomaitytė, Jerson Diasonama and Maud Blandel, created through collaborative dialogue with non‑professional participants. Across performance, film projection, collective listening and polyphonic conversations, the programme explores how encounters reshape artistic practice and affect those involved. Three works are presented: La Vraie Version (radio piece), I Think You Should Be Here (short film) and Jogo de Dentro (performance).
In French.
Choreographed and performed by Davi Pontes and Wallace Ferreira, Repertório N.3 closes their trilogy with a mischievous, incisive dance that uses irony and mockery as modes of resistance. Created after Bolsonaro’s 2022 defeat, this final chapter swaps the martial frontal energy of earlier pieces for playful, provocative gestures: naked, unmiked bodies and no music foreground look, pride and sly humor. Invoking social media codes and viral culture, the duo interrogates how queer and racialized bodies are seen, exposed and consumed.
American guitarist, singer and producer Josh Smith brings virtuosic blues guitar and gritty vocals, his style steeped in contemporary and classic blues. Acclaimed by Guitar World among the top twenty living blues guitarists, he blends roaring solos with soulful phrasing. Sharing the bill, Amaury Faivre offers an intimate blues‑folk one‑man show, combining guitar, voice, harmonica, loops and stompbox. Together they create a night of raw energy and tender moments, alternating electric fire and acoustic intimacy.
Samar Haddad King’s Shabaab blends dance, theatre and puppetry to trace the intimate bond between two Palestinian friends, Mohamed and Mahmoud. Through movement, dialogue and a haunting puppet by Sipho Ngxola, the piece reconstructs memories, imagined futures and the silences carved by colonial violence. The choreography explores youth, tenderness and forms of resistance, creating a fragile space where friendship becomes a means of survival and poetic witness.
In English and Arabic with French surtitles.

Choreographed by Léo Lérus, Gounouj in situ is an intimate, physical dance for four performers that evokes fragile, living landscapes. Rooted in gwoka rhythms and inspired by the creole concept of bousyè, the work blends traditional and contemporary vocabularies to explore vulnerability, transformation and resistance. Bodies shift between human and amphibious states across a sensory soundscape of bird song and marine breath, transforming the stage into a moving ecosystem and proposing a fragile possibility of new balance.
