2 – 3 October

Andreas Fulgosi assembles musicians who share an obsession with sonic matter and deep vibration for a carte blanche project exploring persistently stirred low frequencies. Through baritone guitars, bass clarinet and propulsive drumming, the group sculpts a tactile dialogue where raw energy searches for balance and temporal resonance. The programme probes textural limits, favouring tactile listening and long-sustained vibrations that blur the line between composition and collective exploration.

22 September – 4 October

Directed by Nathalie Cuenet and written by Valérie Poirier, Dire adieu is performed by Compagnie Volodia. The piece stages fragmented conversations between a daughter and her mother, probing a quest for recognition and the fragile possibility of reconciliation. Its form recalls the codes of Greek tragedy, using heightened language and concentrated staging to explore memory, silence and unresolved grief. The ensemble creates a tense, intimate atmosphere that makes emotional rupture palpable.

In French.

24 September – 31 October

Nos voisins artificiels stages a tense, intimate theatrical exploration of human relationships in the age of technology. A focused ensemble navigates shifting boundaries between empathy and estrangement through precise physicality, fragmented dialogue and luminous stagecraft. The piece blends dark humour with moments of quiet vulnerability, relying on carefully designed lighting and minimalist sets to heighten emotional textures. Audience members are invited to witness ambiguous intimacy and the uncanny rhythms of contemporary coexistence.

In French.

1 – 3 October

Directed by Gabriel Alvarez, this revival brings back two landmark pieces from his company’s repertoire for the 40th anniversary of Studio d’Action Théâtrale. It pays tribute to Valère Novarina, animating the sonic, visual, semantic and rhythmic material of his language. The performance unfolds as a poetic origin tale that simultaneously suggests the birth of things and the approach of an ending, privileging vocality, dense textual textures and theatrical rupture.

In French.

1 – 31 October

JazzContreBand celebrates its 30th anniversary with a new creation led by trumpeter Erik Truffaz. Franco‑Swiss musicians join forces with the Orchestre des Alpes et du Léman in Side by Side, a programme that blends classical writing, jazz phrasing and open-ended improvisation. The project explores textural contrasts, orchestral colours and solo interplay, shifting from intimate chamber passages to wide, cinematic swells. Expect nuanced dynamics, luminous timbres and collaborative dialogue across genres.

3 – 4 October

Star Thérapie is a wild, off-kilter musical comedy from the Chrysalide Academy company that turns celebrity worship into absurd obsession. On stage, the affable but unorthodox Professor Westley treats a parade of flamboyant patients whose fixations spiral into surreal, laugh-out-loud situations. The show blends catchy songs, physical comedy and fast-paced theatrical invention to create a delirious, high-energy evening that skewers fandom while celebrating performance and spectacle.

In French.
