Adapted from Ettore Scola’s film, this intimate staging follows Antonietta and Gabriele as they confront the daily forms of fascism and the constraints of ideology. Dominique Gubser and Romain Daroles embody a charged encounter of tenderness, desire and political awakening, while sparse staging and attentive lighting strip the world to its emotional essentials. The piece probes exclusion, identity and the precarious freedom found in a single shared day.

Pascal Chenu brings a witty, music-rich solo show devised with Annik von Kaenel, blending chansons, texts and playful satire inspired by Jacques Prévert, Francis Blanche and Bénédict Gampert. Chenu’s original compositions and piano frame a warm, theatrical concert where he is joined by longtime collaborators Véronique Mattana and Sophie Solo. The staging mixes song, dance and sharply comic asides to create an intimate, uplifting evening that oscillates between tenderness and caustic humour.

Step into a living forest where trees begin to speak and share their stories. Children encounter hungry wolves, a forest crone, elegant birds and a humming woodcutter. Through vivid, spoken tales that hover between dream and reality, young listeners will feel wonder, shivers and laughter as voices carry them on imaginative journeys. The performance is poetic, sensory and playful, inviting quiet listening and big imagination.
In French. Kids ages 5 and up.
