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.

Directed by Aurélia Lüscher, Au Grand Passage stages a tender and questioning dialogue with her paternal grandmother and the spectral traces that linger among the living. Combining documentary inquiry and poetic dramaturgy, Lüscher conjures the voices of those who engage with the beyond amid a wax and mist décor that blurs visible and invisible. Drawing on readings like Magali Molinié and Vinciane Despret, the piece explores what cannot be resolved, using theatre’s spectral dimension to imagine passage between forms.

3 – 6 September

Performed and directed by Eve Aouizerate, this incisive solo creation blends autofiction and faux stand-up to turn fairy-tale promises into a sharp satire. Using humour and precise stagecraft, Aouizerate interrogates reactionary online imaginaries and the contemporary allure of tradwives, exposing tensions between domestic idealisation and feminist inheritance. The piece mixes intimate confession, comic timing and critical observation to probe identity, boredom and the pressures shaping women’s lives.
