Balades Théâtralisées invites audiences on an outdoor theatrical promenade that uncovers hidden city histories through staged scenes in natural settings.

Soundscapes and simple lighting sculpt nocturnal and intimate atmospheres, while performers shift between storytelling and embodiment. The route alternates between the company’s traditional itinerary and a new underground-themed walk, creating a layered experience of memory, surprise and communal discovery.

The atmosphere is buoyant and communal, driven by steady rhythm, friendly competition and shared effort.
