The festival highlights refined ensemble playing, expressive phrasing and an intimate atmosphere.
Co-created by Primala Casse, La Cantine de Nasreddine stages a mobile kitchen as a theatrical set where cooking and storytelling intertwine.

Vicky Althaus’s lighting and an intimate, communal mise en scène frame moments of humour, ritual and shared eating, inviting audiences into a warm, inventive collective experience.

Join a playful builder who improvises a strange home in a garden. With brave, clever ropes and found objects she moves from one idea to the next, sometimes wild, sometimes stubborn, slowly assembling a surprising structure. Children will watch materials cooperate or resist, feel the rhythm of making, and wonder whether everything will collapse or turn into accidental genius. A lively, physical performance that celebrates imagination, trial and joyful experimentation.
