Cocoon + The Woohoo

Booking Required

Cocoon, led by Mark Daumail, marks twenty years with an intimate acoustic programme that revisits its most emblematic songs from the double album Bones for the Dogs. The French pop-folk project, known for its singular voice and songs sung in English, favors delicate arrangements and close-knit dynamics. Opening act The Woohoo — Valérie Martinez and Zep — brings complementary, tender harmonies born from their collaboration with Cocoon. The evening promises a hushed, emotive soundworld focused on nuance and lyricism.

Created and performed by DeLaurentis, Pionnières! rewrites the history of electronic music through the voices of women who shaped it. Drawing on influences from Éliane Radigue to Suzanne Ciani, Delia Derbyshire and Björk, the solo performer blends live machines — notably a rare ARP 2500 — with archival material and striking visuals developed with Sony CSL. Originally created for the 50th anniversary of Printemps de Bourges and presented in collaboration with Electron Festival × Les Créatives, the work offers an immersive, reflective exploration of memory and legacy.

24 September – 4 October

Le Truc sur le feu is a playful, offbeat fable that examines how the domestication of fire shaped human life. Written by Romane Nicolas, the piece stages two Paleolithic clans who wonder, clash and ignite as puppets by the Kokoschka tradition bring grotesque situations to life. With incisive humour and sharp theatricality, the show confronts ideas of progress, individuality versus community, animality and civilisation, offering a vividly staged reflection on the choices that set societies alight.

In French.
