Adapted and performed by Felipe Castro, this solo staging probes the absurdity of war, murderous nationalism and the raw misery at the heart of Céline’s writing. Coach José Lillo supports a performance of muscular, visceral language while Natacha Jaquerod’s set, Rinaldo Del Boca’s lighting and Jean Faravel’s sound sculpt stark, claustrophobic atmospheres. The production balances brutal imagery with moments of surprising humanity, revealing the author’s vocation as a doctor through an intimate, relentless theatrical journey.

Artistic direction by Cédric Pescia frames a collective traversal of György Kurtág’s landmark piano cycle Játékok, performed by students and young pianists from HEM, CMG, CPMDT, IJD and pre‑college programmes. The cycle presents Books I–X alongside the world premiere of the unpublished Book XI, a sequence of miniatures that are playful yet exacting. The repertoire explores gesture, texture and concentrated musical language, creating an intimate sonic landscape that balances delicate detail with sudden bursts of intensity. Presented for Kurtág’s centenary and CMG’s 190th anniversary.

Directed by Joël Maillard and adapted from Nina Yargekov’s novel, Double nationalité is a choral theatrical investigation into identity and its contradictions. Four actresses — Cécile Goussard, Mélina Martin, Alicia Packer and Marie Ripoll — embody a single heroine and the chorus of her inner thoughts, navigating bilingual disorientation, memory and fantasy. Mélissa Rouvinet’s scenography, Antoine Françoise’s music and Édouard Hügli’s lighting create a dreamlike, often sharp atmosphere. Production by Cie SNAUT; costumes by Coralie Chauvin and sound by Cédric Simon.
