Frankenstein was born in Cologny through the pen of Mary Shelley in 1818, telling the story of Dr. Victor Frankenstein and his creation. The Founders reinterpret this literary classic, turning the monster into a silent hero. In this unique theatrical performance at Maison Saint-Gervais, the performers rely on non-verbal gestures to construct both the space and the narrative.
The Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève and La Cité Bleue join forces for an evening celebrating the release of artist Paolo Colombo’s book, “The Second Time”. The event kicks off with a panel discussion featuring Paolo Colombo, Andrea Bellini, Leonardo García-Alarcón, and Muriel Brandt, exploring the historical connections between the two institutions and Colombo’s artistic practice. Following the discussion, a rebetiko concert by Theodora Athanassiou and Alexandros Kentris will highlight this Greek musical heritage. The evening will conclude with a bar and book signings by Paolo Colombo.
Back from the ashes like a mischievous phoenix, this stage adaptation of Hergé’s timeless comic hurls Bianca Castafiore’s shrill “Heavens, my jewels!” onto the boards and detonates a riotous, closed-door whodunnit inside the tranquil walls of Moulinsart: red herrings fly, misunderstandings snowball and Tintin’s entire gallery of eccentrics careen through a dazzling, hyper-faithful recreation of the album, where actors vanish into near-unrecognisable guises and the set itself crackles with playful theatrical sleight-of-hand—proof that some productions really do possess a magic, living soul of their own.
In French. Ages 7 and up.

The Biopark is temporarily hosting Janus, a unique two-headed Greek tortoise, during the renovation of the Museum. Each head of this male tortoise has its own independent brain, which sometimes makes its movements challenging. In captivity, Janus receives attentive care, resulting in an impressive lifespan of 26 years.
