Danitsa + Mercee

Returning after four years, Geneva singer Danitsa blends hip‑hop, soul and reggae with assured artistry. Signed to acclaimed Big Dada, her single Miss Yo ushers in a new phase of self‑confidence and creative independence as she prepares a forthcoming album exploring family, sisterhood, love and self‑reclamation. Joining her is Zurich vocalist Mercee, whose Cuban and Italian roots inform a sound that mixes soul, R&B and contemporary influences. Both artists bring warm, stage‑honed performances in a neo‑soul vein. Coproduction with PTR.

Electron Festival – Detroit Legends: Cybotron & Dopplereffekt

Performances

Alhambra

Presented by Electron Festival, Detroit Legends gathers pioneers Cybotron and Dopplereffekt for a dialogue between two foundational visions of techno. Their early experiments fused futurism, electronic machinery and African-American musical culture, shaping a sound that still echoes across generations. The evening opens with Geneva’s Orphia, whose analog textures, metronomic rhythms and luminous atmospheres form a bridge between origins and contemporary electronic practice. Three live sets, multiple generations, a concentrated portrait of the lineage and emotional force of Detroit electronic music.

Une heure de tranquillité

Performances

Théâtre du Crève-Coeur

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.

Amor

Performances

Théâtre le douze dix-huit

Amor follows a forty‑something couple, attached yet weary from routine, confronting unspoken truths and the pull toward emancipation. This intimate, humanist theatre piece probes love’s contradictions—between inherited models and contemporary norms—through subtle staging and concentrated performances. Marjolaine Minot and Guillaume Prin embody the emotional shifts with delicate nuance, drawing the audience into a relational interior where choices, desire and restraint collide.

In French.
