LA VISITE

Performances

La Parfumerie

Directed by Céline Goormaghtigh and written by Anne Berest, LA VISITE probes maternal instinct with sharp humour and urgent intensity. In a compact domestic setting, a young mother at the limits of endurance confronts visitors while her defenses dissolve; a trio of actresses whirl and collide, delivering a caustic torrent of language and revealing movement. The work explores ‘matraissance’—the birth of motherhood—balancing lucidity, rage and tenderness to unsettle familiar myths about maternal bliss.

Enchanting Night: Poetic Reading with Music

Performances

Bibliothèque de Carouge

Performed by actress Carole Epiney and classical guitarist Carl Alex, this poetic reading traces the night as an intimate, mysterious landscape. Selections from Emily Brontë, Rainer Maria Rilke, Charles Baudelaire, Alphonse de Lamartine and Renée Vivien unfold between spoken word and guitar, alternating melancholy, contemplation and quiet longing. Brief newly written fragments weave the poems into a continuous arc, while the pared-back musical accompaniment envelops the voice in a soft, reflective atmosphere.

La Ménagerie de verre

Performances

Théâtre de Carouge

For his final production as a theatre director, Jean Liermier revisits Tennessee Williams’s autobiographical classic about memory, longing and family. Set in the 1930s American South, the staging gathers a company around Laura, here embodied by Aurélia Thierrée, with Cyprien Colombo, David Gobet and Clotilde Mollet completing the ensemble. Liermier’s direction emphasises fragile interiors and poetic movement, offering a liberating, weightless atmosphere that balances tenderness and uneasy nostalgia.
