Late Night returns in 2026 with a bold evening of DJ sets, live music and immersive visual performances that imagine desirable futures. The bill features Tatyana Jane, deBasement and Qlub Qimeras alongside an installation curated by Noemi Grütter, with audio-reactive visuals by Eleonora Bonorva and scenography by Zoé Bilgeri. The programme blends club energy and experimental staging to create a participative, sensory experience that foregrounds collaboration and speculative imagination.
Directed by Rebecca Stella and adapted with Danielle Barthélemy, Cendrillon blends classic fairy-tale drama with manga-inspired staging. Pili Loop’s original score, Mathieu Courtaillier’s lighting and the set by Camille Ansquer shape a vivid, contemporary universe. Costumes by Alice Toutev and Sonia Bosc and choreography by Léon add playful movement and character. Anthony Surleraux’s video projections and graphics expand the tale’s visual world, pairing tradition with modern theatrical textures.

Choreography and performance by Victoria Dauberville, this dance piece follows a ballerina who literally escapes her music box to discover a new world and, ultimately, herself. Like a doll shaped by strict rules, she abandons prescribed steps and meets other dancers and styles, inventing her own movement. The staging plays with expectation and humour, questioning what it means to dance with others and alone, and opening space for surprise and tenderness.
JazzContreBand celebrates its 30th anniversary with a new creation led by trumpeter Erik Truffaz. Franco‑Swiss musicians join forces with the Orchestre des Alpes et du Léman in Side by Side, a programme that blends classical writing, jazz phrasing and open-ended improvisation. The project explores textural contrasts, orchestral colours and solo interplay, shifting from intimate chamber passages to wide, cinematic swells. Expect nuanced dynamics, luminous timbres and collaborative dialogue across genres.
Sir András Schiff and Evgeny Kissin join at the piano for an intimate programme of pieces for two pianos and four hands. They perform Mozart’s Sonata in D major, KV 448, Schumann’s Andante and Variations, op. 46, and Bilder aus Osten, Smetana’s La Moldau in the four‑hand arrangement, plus selected Dvořák Slavonic Dances. The recital balances classical clarity with Romantic depth, highlighting refined ensemble interplay and the contrasting voices of two towering virtuosos.
Focus Jeune Création brings together a new generation of Romand artists over two weeks, presenting five bold and hybrid performances that blur theatre, performance and live art. The program explores emergent writing and stage practices— from plateau-based text to pieces rooted in the real—offering layered, often indisciplinary approaches that question formats and invent languages for a transforming world. Accompanying meetings and discussions extend the works and open insight into creative processes.
