Ameigas — Galician Traditions

Ameigas brings together four musicians whose paths create a dialogue between Galicia and Great Britain. Founded by Sandra Tamayo Ramos (gaita, voice) and Cassandre Balbar (gaita, recorders), the project weaves traditional Galician melodies with British and klezmer influences. Joined by Phil Alexander (piano, accordion) and Carlos Peso Boullosa (Galician percussion), the ensemble blends raw rural timbres and refined interplay, evoking windswept landscapes, communal dances and intimate song—an immersive sound world rooted in tradition and open to cross-cultural exchange.

Directed by Rebecca Stella and adapted with Danielle Barthélemy, Cendrillon blends classic fairy-tale drama with manga-inspired staging. Pili Loop’s original score, Mathieu Courtaillier’s lighting and the set by Camille Ansquer shape a vivid, contemporary universe.

Les Fabulateurs present a long-form improvisation in which the audience steers the narrative. A story grows from spectators’ suggestions, then at intermission the crowd proposes twists; the chosen idea is woven into the second half, overturning characters and stakes. The company relies on quick wit, physical play and tight ensemble listening to reshape plotlines in the moment. The piece privileges surprise, communal invention and a lively, razor-bright comic energy that keeps the performance elastic and unpredictable.

In French.

23 – 25 October

Two Point Oh is an electric drama-comedy that probes love, loss and the unsettling presence of artificial intelligence. The staging blends sharp dialogue, moments of dark humour and pulsing audiovisual design to blur boundaries between human memory and digital simulation. Performers navigate intimate emotional terrain while the production explores grief’s persistence in a technologised world, alternating tenderness and bite to leave audiences both moved and unsettled.

In English. French subtitles.

22 September – 29 November

Two short plays by Anton Chekhov staged by Tibor Ockenfels and Flavie Tapparel, presented as compact dramatic machines where romantic comedy masks escalating confrontations between desire, affection and material interest. Performances rely on precise physical timing, terse exchanges and a lean, playful design to reveal the simmering violence behind courtship rituals. The three actors — Estelle Bridet, Matteo Prandi and Raphaël Vachoux — inhabit heightened character types that shift between farce and darker comic truth, creating a sharply observed, kinetic evening.

Choreographer and performer Geumhyung Jeong presents a double programme that probes the uneasy alliance between the human body and surrounding objects. Combining contemporary dance, performance, puppetry and visual art with a long-running interest in robotic sculptures, she revisits works in a conference-performance, Toy Under Development, before performing Find Select Copy and Paste. Stripping movement of its props — even appearing naked as a deliberate “costume” — Jeong reconfigures gestures to blur animate and inanimate, creating an intimate, uncanny ritual.
