The Théâtre Forum Meyrin is known for its diverse and dynamic programming, offering a range of performances, including theater, dance, music, and interdisciplinary arts. It plays an important role in supporting the local arts scene and caters to audiences of all ages.
Nicolas Faure revisits his photographic series “Meyrin, citoyens du monde”, presenting 71 intimate portraits of Meyrin families photographed in their living rooms alongside select urban views. The exhibition foregrounds the city’s multicultural fabric through portraiture and contextual material, and includes an audio listening area that gives voice to the people depicted. Archival commentary situates the series in the social and institutional history of the mid-1990s, exploring memory, migration and civic identity through a human-scale photographic gaze.
Danielle and Gilles Hubert’s Madagascar is a lyrical documentary that follows five months of intimate fieldwork along a turquoise ocean. Filmed during pirogue journeys through a maritime bush, the film observes daily rituals, rice harvests and the luminous faces of local communities. At the shade of mango trees, beliefs and ceremonies surface in quiet, revealing cultural layers. Through patient observation and evocative imagery, the filmmakers create a sensory portrait of place, memory and ritual.
L’Aventure Invisible explores what shapes a person when the self wavers under life’s blows. Drawing on extensive research and interviews, Marcus Lindeen transforms real stories into a compelling theatrical experience, continuing the director’s work seen in Orlando, Mikael, and Wild Minds.

Acqua Alta takes you to a rainy day in Venice, where rising waters flood the home of a quarreling man and woman. A performance blending humor, drama, and the magic of the Serenissima — boots and umbrellas advised!
Adrien Mondot and Claire Bardainne present an interactive exhibition that blends visual and performing arts, placing the body at the heart of image-making. Combining handcrafted objects with digital devices, the duo uses augmented reality and holography to propose a form of digital animism: apparently motionless stones and objects reveal hidden life through poetic scenarios. The series ‘Le Silence des pierres’ pays homage to the agency and intimacy of life lodged in inert matter.
