Tout-Puissant Orchestre Poly-Rythmo, founded in 1967 in Cotonou, Benin, is a legendary force in West African music. Led by Clément Mélomé, the group developed the ‘groove africain’—a virtuoso fusion of traditional Beninese rhythms with soul, funk, afrobeat, rumba and high-life, interlaced with hints of French song and vodoun tempos. Their sound radiates warmth and joy, driven by propulsive percussion, soulful horns and call-and-response vocals, inviting the audience into an ecstatic, dance‑filled musical journey.
Phlip, a young boy, climbs onstage and feels his little heart racing. Boum, boum, boum — fear knocks at the door. Alone and frozen, he befriends Phlop, his conscience. Together they journey through his body to explore the many faces of emotion and tame the curious beast called stage fright. Set to original electro-pop with bass, synth and electronic drums, the performance blends music, humour and playful moments that help children understand and manage nervousness.

Mathieu Stepson presents Imprévisible, an immersive illusion show that blurs the line between memory and spectacle. Winner of La France a un incroyable talent (2024), Stepson combines sleight-of-hand, mentalism and digital trickery to lead the audience into a narrative where déjà‑vu and doubt take hold. Through subtle storytelling and carefully staged moments each spectator becomes investigator as fiction and reality entwine in a theatrical, sensorial experience.
