Written by Julie Gilbert and directed by Lou Ciszewski, Quoiqu’il arrive. Respire. follows Joana, a thirty-something MMA teacher running exclusively female classes.

Led by the vocal partnership of soprano Valérie Vianin Bonzon and tenor Jesse Concha, with pianist Sebastián Guinta, this recital juxtaposes intimate Romantic lieder and verismo arias by Schumann and Puccini. The singers inhabit contrasting personas, weaving fragile lyricism with dramatic intensity, while the piano provides shimmering textures and bold climaxes. Illuminated by attentive phrasing and close musical dialogue, the programme invites a contemplative, emotionally charged listening experience that moves between tenderness and passion.
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.

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.
In French.
Directed by Alexander Zeldin, The Other Place is a contemporary reading of Antigone that carves a tragic family drama out of everyday life. On the anniversary of their father’s death, two estranged sisters confront memories, renovation works and an uncle determined to move on. With Jerry Killick among the cast and a strikingly realistic scenography, the production exposes hidden violences, irreconcilable trajectories and raw emotional fractures in a finely observed, tense staging.

The ensemble slips into vivid characters, combining spoken comedy and physical nuance to reveal tenderness beneath the chaos, offering a warm, incisive portrait of neighbours and family.
