Blue Electricity

Booking Required

Composed and performed by Vittorio Montalti, Blue Electricity investigates technological surveillance and the erosion of freedom through tense, immersive sound. Metallic percussion, transformed everyday objects and electronic textures blur acoustic and processed timbres, while reactive lighting shapes the performance’s spatial sculpting. The ensemble — Eklekto, Romane Bouffioux, Louis Delignon, Corentin Marillier and Fabien Perreau — executes The Smell of Blue Electricity (2021), a quartet-percussion and live electronics piece that folds theatrical tension into a collective sonic experience.

24 September – 7 October

Directed and performed by Eve Aouizerate, Amours subversives stages a wry, intimate interrogation of gender and desire. With performers Mathilde Lyon and Dylan Poletti, the piece pivots on a provocative premise — a young woman’s decision to abandon a nascent career for the tradwife ideal — and unfolds as a personal theatrical essay on power, intimacy and the contradictions of femininity in 2026. Sparse staging and candid narration create a fierce, tender atmosphere.

In French.

24 – 27 September

Written by Stéphane Bouquet, Six heures plus tard is an intimate stage performance for two performers that explores the fragile bonds between a man and a woman through poetic text, live-filmed images, spare lighting and pared-down stage presence. The piece treats silence as a shared, collective resource and recomposes itself according to each venue’s architecture and the state of the bodies, creating an unusual proximity and contemplative atmosphere.

In French.

25 – 26 September

CrabCore Fest is a Swiss rock and metal festival championing the local scene. Across two days it gathers a diverse lineup of bands from Switzerland and neighbouring France, spanning heavy riffs, melodic metal and experimental rock. Emphasis is on community-driven programming, energetic live performances and a grassroots atmosphere where emerging artists share the bill with seasoned acts. Stalls and food options accompany the stages, creating a convivial frame for loud, visceral music.

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.

In French.

24 – 27 September

Choreographed by Valeska Romero Curiqueo, Pewma (Mapudungun for “dream”) weaves dance, performance, live sound and poetry to trace transmissions between bodies. The piece confronts peripheral, wounded and violently marked identities through ritualized gestures and sensual collisions, invoking Venus as a figure of omen, destruction and rebirth. Live violin, synthesizers and vocals shape a tense, luminous soundscape as bodies dissolve and reconstitute, staging desire, friction and collective memory.

27 August – 18 October

Scène Vagabonde’s seventh edition brings a compact program of contemporary theatre and music, presenting three contrasting stage works — “Par le bout du nez”, “Quadrille” and “Prima facie” — alongside a concert by Orchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp as part of La Bâtie-Festival de Genève. Across intimate stagings the festival favors inventive direction, close ensemble interplay and a balance of wit and intensity, offering encounters that privilege physical presence, tonal variety and rigorous dramaturgy.
