The Handover is a trio led by Ali Eissa (oud), Ayman Asfour (violin) and Jonas Cambien (vintage synth and organ). Their music blends hypnotic, improvised journeys rooted in the Nile delta with krautrock, psychedelic textures and avant‑garde jazz exploration. The result is an expansive, trance‑like soundscape that moves between delicate oud lines, bowed violin atmospheres and analog synth drones. An extended record set by Alan Bolumar follows, exploring complementary sonic territories.
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.

Staged as a playful homage to theatre, this two-hander brings together François Berléand and Max Boublil for a comic exploration of performance and spectatorship. Through backstage rites, superstitions, rivalries and intimate anecdotes, the piece blurs the lines between onstage action and private life, inviting reflection as much as laughter. Laurent Ruquier’s signature voice shapes a warm, mischievous encounter that celebrates actors and audiences alike.

On stage he navigates identity, family and contemporary life with infectious energy and precise timing, inviting laughter that often shifts into quieter reflection.
