Pulse is an acrobatic uppercut where breath, rhythm and bodies fuse into a spectacular trance. Created by Cie Kiaï, the piece propels six acrobats into a rebounding space where the laws of gravity seem to dissolve. Set to a hypnotic musical pulse, the performers lift, collide and vibrate in unison in a vertiginous choreography. The staging privileges sensory intensity, blending physical virtuosity, rhythmic precision and immersive soundscapes to deliver a visceral, kinetic experience.
Théophile Alexandre blends voice and movement in a stripped-back, vibrant baroque creation that fuses early music with contemporary dance. As singer and dancer he delivers a powerful, singular performance, shaped by Jean-Claude Gallotta’s choreography and Guillaume Vincent’s piano. Twenty-one finely honed pieces unfold like the 21 grams of the soul, where music becomes flesh and gesture turns into melody. Between well-known masterpieces and forgotten treasures, the production offers an intimate, organic journey through human emotions, delicate and intense.
Choreographed by Ana Pi, Atomic Joy is a visceral dance piece that transforms joy into an act of resistance. Drawing on Grand Paris street dances and afrodiasporic legacies, Ana Pi brings together eight performers in a physically incandescent ensemble where groove, tension and jubilation collide. Between political manifesto and sensory ritual, the work explores resilience, collective renewal and the raw energy of bodies in motion. Produced in collaboration with Festival Antigel and the Ville de Vernier cultural service.
Led by conductor Jean-Paul Odiau, a 50‑musician cross‑border orchestra pays a large-scale tribute to Miles Davis on the centenary of his birth. Trumpeter Médéric Collignon and his quartet bring an explosive, free-spirited energy, blending composed arrangements with improvisation. The performance moves between transmission and celebration, exploring the textures and moods of Davis’s repertoire with orchestral power and jazz freedom. Presented by the Service de la culture et de la communication — Ville de Vernier in partnership with JazzContreBand, Château Rouge and Vernier Culture.
2048 is a taut dance piece by Cie Chute Libre that confronts the speed of contemporary life and the rhythms of personal time. Seven dancers, grounded in visceral contact with the floor, navigate urgency, vertigo and memory through fragments of lived experience: sleepless nights, decisive seconds and long-held hopes. The choreography alternates explosive physicality and poetic suspension, transforming time into a moving measure and inviting a collective, embodied exploration of waiting, flight and resilience.
