Caillasses Live Solo

Performed and written by Joëlle Sambi, Caillasses Live Solo is a fierce poetic recital combining slam and electronic beats. With musical composition by Sara Machine (Azul Gruselle), Sambi mines the margins to reveal beauty, rage and the scars of racial, sexist and homophobic violence. Texts are drawn from her books Caillasses and related collections. The piece explores sapphic love, chosen families and political femmage through an intimate, electric delivery that resonates physically and emotionally.

La Demande en mariage et l’ours

Performances

Théâtre de Carouge

Two short plays by Anton Chekhov staged by Tibor Ockenfels and Flavie Tapparel, presented as compact dramatic machines where romantic comedy masks escalating confrontations between desire, affection and material interest. Performances rely on precise physical timing, terse exchanges and a lean, playful design to reveal the simmering violence behind courtship rituals. The three actors — Estelle Bridet, Matteo Prandi and Raphaël Vachoux — inhabit heightened character types that shift between farce and darker comic truth, creating a sharply observed, kinetic evening.

Double Jeu

Performances

La Parfumerie

Double Jeu is a sharp, playful improvisation show built around strategy, split-second choices and mutual misdirection. Each performer receives a secret mission and must weave it discreetly into the action, turning every scene into a live game of influence, bluff and comic escalation. The result is fast, unpredictable theatre where the ensemble’s timing, listening and inventiveness keep the audience guessing until the very last exchange.

Nous les minuscules

Performances

Am Stram Gram

Led by Ahmed Madani and a troupe of young performers, this vibrant, joyful performance gathers choir, intimate video narratives, dance, live music and the sonic textures of protests in an interactive agora. The staging blends collective singing, personal testimony and physical theatre to explore youth engagement, solidarity and the emergence of shared pathways. The piece is electrifying and tender, inviting audiences into an energetic communal experience.

Stéphane Blok

Performances

Radio Vostok

Stéphane Blok returns with City 8047, an album shaped in Zurich and recorded live on guitar and voice, with no post-production edits. His acoustic playing folds melody, harmony and percussion into the same gesture, creating raw, stripped-down arrangements that feel both immediate and intimate. The songs move between irony and emotion, reflecting on AI, virtuality, fakery and dehumanization without slipping into polemic. Each track keeps its own resonance, carried by precise lyrics and a singular stage presence.

CHRÜSIMÜSI

Performances

La Comédie de Genève

Directed by Eléonore Bonah and staged by scenographer Maria Clara Castioni, CHRÜSIMÜSI transforms Adelheid Duvanel’s terse, poetic fragments into a multilingual theatrical tapestry. Performers Eléonore Bonah and Maria Clara Castioni inhabit hypersensitive, marginal characters whose everyday gestures oscillate between absurdity and tenderness. Sparse staging and a careful interplay of voice and silence highlight Duvanel’s Kafkaesque intimacy, while language shifts (French, German, Italian) create a fragile, dreamlike atmosphere that balances humour and quiet despair, celebrating stubborn acts of resistance.

Guihome: One-Man Show

Performances

BFM

Guihome returns with a finely observed one‑man show that traces the passage from childhood to adulthood through a gallery of new characters and a naturalistic staging. The performance blends candid humour, tenderness and sharp, observational monologue as it follows first moves, first marriage and a first funeral. The staging favours realism and intimate storytelling, creating a warm, reflective atmosphere sustained across nearly two hours.
