Ari Hoenig Trio

Ari Hoenig leads his trio with guitarist Tom Ollendorff and bassist Conor Chaplin in a program centered on their album Enchanted. Hoenig’s extraordinary rhythmic imagination and melodic approach to the drum drive a music of intricate interplay and spontaneous invention. Ollendorff’s lyrical guitar and Chaplin’s deeply melodic bass weave responsive dialogues, shifting between quiet intimacy and kinetic momentum. The performance balances composed motifs and open improvisation, offering a nuanced, tactile sound world where subtlety, surprise and close listening shape the experience.

Assembled at the initiative of Vincent Ruiz and Nicolas Masson, this newly formed quartet offers an open, democratic interpretation of recent compositions by Nicolas Masson.

Directed by Brigitte Rosset, this intimate comedy follows Lucie, a celebrated playwright trapped by silence, and Thomas, her eccentric new neighbour whose clumsy misadventures rekindle her imagination.

The production honours the original text by Matthieu Delaporte and Alexandre de La Patellière.

For its 500th anniversary, the Grand Council is transforming this seat of power in the Old Town into a stage open to the public.

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.

Accompanying meetings and discussions extend the works and open insight into creative processes.
