Choreographed by Marie-Caroline Hominal, Cent Temps brings together a group of seniors to create a delicate, witty dance-poem about ageing and memory. The piece listens to bodies transformed by time, letting small movements — a tremor, a smile, a gesture — reveal expressivity, playfulness and emotional depth. Hominal’s refined, sensitive language foregrounds dignity and presence while questioning the place of elders in society through a staging both intimate and radiant.
Directed by Geneviève Pasquier and performed by Vincent Babel, LETTRE À MON DICTATEUR stages Eugène’s cathartic gesture of writing to Nicolae Ceauşescu. The production blends intimate monologue with archival echoes, folding fragments of Pierre Omer’s Swing Revue into a jazz-tinged score that punctuates memory and revelation. The creative space favors spare tableaux, tactile sound textures and a nimble rhythm that offsets historical weight with mischievous warmth, transforming personal trauma into a tender, witty coming-of-age confession.

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.

Conducted by Sébastien Brugière, the Chamber Orchestra of Versoix juxtaposes Baroque brilliance and Romantic lyricism in a programme of Vivaldi and Brahms. Soloists Daniela Spadola (bassoon) and Yu Feng Wang (cello) engage in intimate dialogues with the ensemble, their phrasing highlighted against luminous string textures. The artistic focus is on contrast and clarity: precise articulation, warm sonority and expressive depth, with attention to pacing and color that draws listeners into the music’s theatrical and emotional arc.
Françoise Boillat brings Antigone to life in an outdoor performance set against the backdrop of seven “remarkable trees” each month.

Formed in Los Angeles in 2021, La Lom is a trio that turns the city’s diverse soundscape into a sun-drenched cumbia soundtrack.

The ensemble Zac Sokolow (guitar), Jake Faulkner (bass) and Nicholas Baker (percussion) released their debut self-titled album in 2024, revealing an infectious, filmic atmosphere.
