Otis Thaïs Martin performs a solo trapeze piece that turns acrobatic balance into a metaphor for living with anxiety. On a rigging that oscillates and resists, Martin mixes aerial performance, spoken testimony and musical improvisation by Camille Garcia‑Rennes to explore exhaustion, survival strategies and the tenderness of queer kinship. Formerly associated with L’Abri, the artist transforms the stage into a political space for collective care and witness, crafting moments of tension that open onto surprising tenderness and fragile joy.

Directed by Aurélia Lüscher, Au Grand Passage stages a tender and questioning dialogue with her paternal grandmother and the spectral traces that linger among the living. Combining documentary inquiry and poetic dramaturgy, Lüscher conjures the voices of those who engage with the beyond amid a wax and mist décor that blurs visible and invisible. Drawing on readings like Magali Molinié and Vinciane Despret, the piece explores what cannot be resolved, using theatre’s spectral dimension to imagine passage between forms.

The piece mixes intimate confession, comic timing and critical observation to probe identity, boredom and the pressures shaping women’s lives.
