FURTHER AFIELD

The choreographic duo SoulMagnet reimagines celebration as an act of resistance and emancipation in an augmented recreation of their seminal piece. Joined by two dancers, a DJ and a live video artist, they weave a dialogue between disciplines: dance for collective osmosis, music for pulse, and live video as contemporary lighting—intimate viewpoint, mise en abyme or collective memory. Together they propose an ecology of human connection, a contemporary ritual that reconnects bodies to agency and reveals the subversive power of the dancefloor.

Je ne suis pas Johnny

Performances

Théâtre Alchimic

Je ne suis pas Johnny is a theatrical exploration of identity, memory and the weight of cultural myth. Combining intimate staging, physical sensitivity and moments of dark humour, the piece unsettles familiar narratives and invites audiences to reconsider how personas are constructed and performed. Sparse lighting and a fluid rhythm shape an intense, close-up experience, where silence and gesture reveal hidden tensions and unexpected tenderness.

LA VISITE

Performances

La Parfumerie

Directed by Céline Goormaghtigh and written by Anne Berest, LA VISITE probes maternal instinct with sharp humour and urgent intensity. In a compact domestic setting, a young mother at the limits of endurance confronts visitors while her defenses dissolve; a trio of actresses whirl and collide, delivering a caustic torrent of language and revealing movement. The work explores ‘matraissance’—the birth of motherhood—balancing lucidity, rage and tenderness to unsettle familiar myths about maternal bliss.

Toutes les femmes sont des aliens

Performances

Théâtre du Grütli

Told as a solo performance, this piece follows a woman as she remembers the films that shaped her life and blurs the line between cinema and memory. Through references to science-fiction sagas and cinematic archetypes — the woman-soldier, the survivor, the reluctant mother — the show probes identity, fear of change and the ways stories migrate from screen to skin. Sparse staging and intimate narration create a haunting, introspective atmosphere.

In French.

Le Repas

Performances

Théâtre du Grütli

Directed by Gabriel Álvarez, Le Repas revives two flagship pieces from his company’s repertoire for the 40th anniversary of Studio d’Action Théâtrale and pays homage to playwright Valère Novarina. A cosmogonic feast staged with the audience at table, the performance devours the world through ritual, poetry and corporeal presence. It examines human voracity, collective memory and the fate of what we ingest, offering a sensorial, intimate and occasionally brutal theatrical journey.

In French.
