Adapted from Adèle Fugère’s novel, this intimate theatrical piece follows eight-year-old Rosalie as she wakes one morning sporting Jean Rochefort’s moustache — a whimsical device that reveals childhood depression, fears and resilience. Thomas Drelon inhabits Rosalie with malice and virtuosity, shifting between child and imagined alter ego in a staging that balances tenderness and humour. Sparse yet inventive direction and expressive performance probe fragile inner lives with warmth and subtlety.

Les Wriggles stage a razor-sharp musical comedy that blends wordplay, biting satire and tuneful arrangements. The quartet — Stéphane Gourdon, Emmanuel Urbanet, Antoine Réjasse and Fabien Marais — draws on material from their 2022 album Quatre étoiles and sketches that lampoon current affairs. Founded in 1995, dissolved in 2009 and reunited in 2018, they mix theatricality and music to provoke laughter and reflection. A lively, incisive performance.

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.
