Christa

Christa is a sensory immersion imagining a new post‑conflict world through music, whispered voices and amplified objects. Conceived by Perrine Le Querrec and Ronan Courty, the piece enacts Christa — embodied by Delphy Murzeau — alongside vocal and instrumental textures by Linda Oláh. Pierre Favrez shapes the sound design and programming while Sarah Lebreton crafts lighting that heightens the hypnotic atmosphere. The work blends ASMR, sustained synth layers and ritualized vocal gestures to evoke a fragile, reconfigured harmony.

BLUE BLUE SKY brings an indie rock-pop set that moves between playful energy and dreamy escape. The music turns human rock ’n’ roll mayhem into a breezy, sunlit ride, with a sound that feels both buoyant and slightly surreal. Its imagery of blue skies, waves, and summer warmth suggests a performance built on lightness, movement, and an easy sense of release.

L’homme oreiller

Performances

Théâtre Alchimic

L’homme oreiller is a poetic, physical theatre piece that explores sleep, memory and intimacy through fragmented scenes and inventive stagecraft. The performance blends subtle movement, atmospheric soundscapes and minimalist design to evoke shifting states between wakefulness and dream. The ensemble cultivates a fragile, tactile atmosphere where gestures accumulate meaning and silence speaks as loudly as action. The result is a meditative, emotionally resonant experience that lingers beyond the lights.

Conrado Molina adds virtuoso rhythms and world-music vocal colours, while multi-instrumentalist and producer Bummela layers rich textures and subtle electronic touches. Together they weave a warm, contemplative soundscape where melody and rhythm dissolve boundaries between players and listeners, fostering moments of quiet connection and shared wonder.
