29 October – 8 November

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.

In French.

3 – 20 December

Directed by Lou Ciszewski, Amours enfouies follows three performers — Françoise Paca Gautier, Liv Van Thuyne and Pascale Vachoux — as they excavate the memory of a vanished summer cabaret. Blending ritual, live music (Léon Boesch, Romane Chantre, Alexis Gfeller) and emotional archaeology, Anna Popek’s set and Luc Gendroz’s lighting bring back ghosts and overlooked fragments. A sensitive, poetic piece about the traces of the past and the emergence of an unexpected new bond.

In French.

21 January – 7 February

Amours impossibles follows a cross-border couple: she holds a passport and freedom of movement, he remains confined to the Palestinian territories where he was born. Valentine Sergo’s text and Laure Hirsig’s direction weave intimate scenes of travel, checkpoints and urgent messages into a meta-theatrical reflection on authorship. Wissam Arbache and Valentine Sergo embody a love shaped by geopolitics, while an enigmatic grandmother figure evokes collective memory and mischief through the performance’s layered storytelling.

In French.

4 – 24 March

Amours puissantes stages an intimate, poetic exploration of inherited memory and female lineage. Martine Corbat’s staging traces the collision between Lola Cam and a visiting novelist through delicate objects and ruptured secrets. The cast — Charlotte Filou, Paola Pagani, Dylan Poletti and Lola Riccaboni — inhabits a layered, physical dramaturgy supported by live composition from Julien Israelian and Pierre Omer and live video by Camille de Pietro. Scenic design by Anna Popek, with lighting (Charlotte Curchod, Laurent Schaer), sound (Michael Seabra), costumes (Irène Schlatter) and art accessories (Judith Dubois).

In French.

15 – 25 April

Directed by Anne Schwaller and written by Pascal Rambert, Huitante stages a violent, intimate encounter between two sisters whose long silences explode into raw language and sudden tenderness. Marie Druc and Caroline Gasser deliver a mercilessly honest performance that alternates cruelty and care, exposing childhood grudges and fragile attempts at repair. The production relies on stripped-down staging and concentrated acting to create a charged atmosphere of conflict and possible reconciliation.

In French.

13 – 23 May

Directed by Jonas and Paola Pagani, Amours racines gathers eleven performers from migratory backgrounds to share intimate portraits of Geneva through speech, memory and humour. Dramaturgy by Valentine Sergo shapes personal fragments into a nuanced ensemble piece; live music by Ismael Kord and Guillaume Lagger punctuates scenes while Claire Firmann’s lighting, Muriel Décaillet’s scenography and Samantha Landragi’s costumes frame shifting memories. Produced in partnership with AMIC, the work blends testimony, wit and sensitive staging to observe belonging and urban life.

In French.
