5 – 6 November

Conceived as a dialogue between historical research and live performance, this second edition of Les Encyclopédiennes explores bel canto and the first currents of Italian Romanticism. Musicians from L’Encyclopédie shape a refined programme that moves from lecture and vocal reflection to concert performance, with Bénédicte Tauran in the workshop and young talents from the HEM in the Ex-Libris concert. The atmosphere is intimate, lyrical, and intellectually charged.

In English.

30 October – 7 November

Directed by Jean Bellorini in collaboration with Yang Hua Theatre, this staging reimagines Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s Le Petit Prince with the title character portrayed by a Chinese actor. The production blends French and Mandarin dialogue with live music by singers from China’s independent scene. Actors François Deblock and Marc Plas perform alongside a cast that shifts between a childlike prince, an ancient reciter of poems and fantastical cosmic inhabitants. The staging mixes song, poetry and intimate theatricality, exploring friendship and human connection.

In French and Mandarin.

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.

Mentir lo Mínimo by Cie Alta Gama follows the journey of three bodies — a woman, a man and a bicycle — stripped down to the essentials: the body itself. Performers Amanda and Alejo create daring partnering, acrobatics and bicycle voltiges to explore self-relationship, identity and intimacy. Blending circus, theatre and live music within a minimalist aesthetic, the piece treats physicality with subtlety and celebration, offering a poetic, tactile reflection on presence.

5 – 22 November

A theatrical, musical and visual voyage into the heart of the Mediterranean, Poésidonia brings together forty actors, singers and musicians in a vibrant chorus. Their stories speak of solidarity, exile, hope and resistance, carried by poetry, music and voices from across the world. Around the performance, concerts extend the encounter, while an exhibition of photographs and illustrations adds further visual perspectives.

Quatuor Terpsycordes overturns chamber music conventions by forging a direct, living relationship with the audience. Combining boldness and sensitivity, the quartet moves fluidly through repertoire from pre-classical works to contemporary creations, searching constantly for balance between tradition and freedom. Their Haydn cycle on period instruments and a recent album have crystallized this rigorous, inspired approach. Violinists Girolamo Bottiglieri and Raya Raytcheva, violist Caroline Cohen-Adad and cellist Florestan Darbellay shape luminous textures and intense chamber dialogue, inviting deep listening and vibrant emotional exchange.
