FUSA is a musical voyage shaped by memory and transatlantic currents, where Latin American roots meet the brass energy of North America. Built by Fulvia Torricelli, Pedro Degaut, Noé Tavelli, Sergio Valdeos and Pierre Balda, the ensemble moves like a drifting carousel, opening space for stories, grooves and free improvisation. German violin, Brazilian guitar, roaming drums and deep bass create a vivid, border-crossing soundscape that feels both intimate and in motion.
Part of Recluses Fest #10, this evening brings a rare tribute to Parabellum alongside performances by Ring of Cash and Vikie. Former members of Parabellum reunite with guests and local scene stalwarts to revisit cult anthems with raw intensity and communal fervour. Ring of Cash blends power-folk-rock energy with Juliette Canouet’s captivating voice, supported by Mika Garcia, Jean-Philippe Soler and Xa Mesa. Vikie opens with a punk-tinged, politically charged chanson, creating an exhilarating, sweat-soaked atmosphere.
Adapted freely from Maryse Condé and Emily Brontë, this theatrical adaptation follows Razyé and Cathy across three generations in a post-emancipation Guadeloupe. Directed by Anne Monfort, the production probes themes of racism, passion, pride, social violence, vengeance and fatalism through a visceral, rhythmic staging. The ensemble uses sparse, evocative design and intense physical interplay to reveal how inherited trauma shapes desire and retribution.

Told as a solo performance, this piece follows a woman as she remembers the films that shaped her life and blurs the line between cinema and memory. Through references to science-fiction sagas and cinematic archetypes — the woman-soldier, the survivor, the reluctant mother — the show probes identity, fear of change and the ways stories migrate from screen to skin. Sparse staging and intimate narration create a haunting, introspective atmosphere.

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.
