Crack

FURTHER AFIELD

Choreographer Po‑Cheng Tsai creates physically bold, poetic and visually striking works. After Floating Flowers (2022) and Alice (2024), Crack takes inspiration from melting glaciers to explore contemporary solitude and the slow disintegration of relationships. Combining traditional Asian movement, jazz, martial arts and hip hop, Tsai stages 13 virtuoso dancers in a pared‑down scenography and immersive sound design. Communions, suspensions, tremors and fractures trace a hypnotic yet urgent choreography where the body becomes a fragile mirror of our world.

Je ne suis pas Johnny is a theatrical exploration of identity, memory and the weight of cultural myth. Combining intimate staging, physical sensitivity and moments of dark humour, the piece unsettles familiar narratives and invites audiences to reconsider how personas are constructed and performed. Sparse lighting and a fluid rhythm shape an intense, close-up experience, where silence and gesture reveal hidden tensions and unexpected tenderness.

8 – 10 October

Directed by Gabriel Álvarez, Le Repas revives two flagship pieces from his company’s repertoire for the 40th anniversary of Studio d’Action Théâtrale and pays homage to playwright Valère Novarina. A cosmogonic feast staged with the audience at table, the performance devours the world through ritual, poetry and corporeal presence. It examines human voracity, collective memory and the fate of what we ingest, offering a sensorial, intimate and occasionally brutal theatrical journey.

Jaune is a fresh stage piece created and performed by recent graduates Mathis Josselin and Gabrielle Pialoux.

The creators blend minimal staging and tactile gestures to produce a concise, evocative hour of shared emotion and quiet humour.

In French. Created for the Fête du théâtre 2026.

15 September – 11 October

A darkly comic solo play about obsession and domestic chaos. When Michel finds a rare record he has long sought, he prepares a perfect hour to listen — but family, neighbours and a drip that will wreck the disc steadily intrude. The piece skewers selfishness with sharp humour and precise staging, combining intimate realism and heightened farce to probe human smallness and the desperate desire for solitude.
