Andreas Fulgosi assembles musicians who share an obsession with sonic matter and deep vibration for a carte blanche project exploring persistently stirred low frequencies. Through baritone guitars, bass clarinet and propulsive drumming, the group sculpts a tactile dialogue where raw energy searches for balance and temporal resonance. The programme probes textural limits, favouring tactile listening and long-sustained vibrations that blur the line between composition and collective exploration.
Coordinated by Stan Breynaert, this PrePro Evening presents two student-led projects, DELCIA and ARTHUR, showcasing emerging musical voices from eMa’s PrePro programme. Each project unfolds its own musical universe through original compositions and personal approaches to sound, inviting attentive listening and reflection.

The experience is intimate and exploratory, revealing the artists’ developing aesthetics and expressive risks.
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.

Directed, written and performed by Rébecca Chaillon, La Parabole du Seum unfolds as a contemporary tale inspired by Seine‑Saint‑Denis, Martinique and New Orleans.

On stage, Chaillon invents utopian spaces to forge new myths and imagine possible futures, combining intimate storytelling with powerful collective imagery.

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.
