Move and listen with your baby in this playful, sensory performance by Israel Galván. The stage becomes a sound and movement playground where gentle flamenco rhythms, curious shoes and surprising textures invite close observation and shared discovery. Short, tactile scenes encourage babies to react, explore rhythm and respond to quiet gestures. Designed for tiny children, the piece is intimate, calm and full of small, joyful surprises.
In French. Kids ages 6-18 months.
Jonathan Dove’s opera adapts the tales The Enchanted Pig and The Brown Bear of Norway into a tender, witty musical fable. Directed by Joan Mompart and translated into French by Sabryna Pierre, the production blends cardboard and pixel-art scenography with a sensitive score to tell Flora’s journey — condemned to marry a pig who is an enchanted prince — aided by the North Wind, the Moon and the Sun. Themes include fate, free will and the clairvoyance of the heart.

Le Cochon enchanté is an opera by Jonathan Dove, directed by Joan Mompart. The story follows Flora, a princess who confronts a prince transformed into a pig by day and a man by night, embarking on a modern quest through worlds inspired by video games and social networks. Eight lyric singers and six instrumentalists bring intimate musical textures to this co‑production with the Grand Théâtre de Genève and the Opéra de Lausanne, blending playful staging and contemporary irony.

Choreographed and performed by Christian Ubl in collaboration with naturalist Gilles Clément, this danced dialogue unfolds like a wandering garden where movement and thought grow freely. With humour and tenderness, the duo probes what it means to be alive: planetary mixing, the journeys of seeds, the delicate dance of the edelweiss and the encounter between voice and body. Sparse staging and intimate interplay let poetry sprout and invite quiet reflection. Co-produced with festival Antigel.
Am Stram Gram’s creation Au diapason is a pop musical in song that seeks to enchant life. In a therapist’s office, Rémi, who speaks only in rhymes, meets Mila, who has lost her voice. Their encounter uses difference and imagination to probe intimate fears with humour, sparkle and Broadway‑style energy. The staging mixes catchy melodies, theatrical choreography and playful visual detail to invite audiences of all ages into a vivid, emotional musical comedy.

Created by Am Stram Gram and directed by Steven Matthews, this wild Western reinvents the genre with humour and kinetic energy. Matthews and his ensemble interrogate law, money and the idea of progress while pushing the limits of the stage into saloons, robberies, a mock funeral, shadow‑theatre train sequences and breathless chases. The production blends physical theatre, visual invention and comic timing to deliver an irreverent, spirited exploration of community and territory.
