Choreographed by Marie-Caroline Hominal, Cent Temps brings together a group of seniors to create a delicate, witty dance-poem about ageing and memory. The piece listens to bodies transformed by time, letting small movements — a tremor, a smile, a gesture — reveal expressivity, playfulness and emotional depth. Hominal’s refined, sensitive language foregrounds dignity and presence while questioning the place of elders in society through a staging both intimate and radiant.

6 – 7 February

Created and performed by the Patin libre troupe, Murmuration stages 15 skaters as a single, fluid organism inspired by the collective dynamics of bird flocks. At breakneck speed the ensemble executes precise, chain-reaction choreographies that merge virtuosity and risk. The piece explores harmony and antagonism within groups, alternating moments of breathtaking synchronization with fragile, intimate passages. Bold staging and relentless momentum offer a sensory, kinetic experience that blurs dance and spectacle.

Apparat, the Berlin electronic producer and co‑founder of Moderat, presents a rare, immersive live show that previews new material ahead of his forthcoming album. Returning to the stage after years of scarcity, he leads a full band through meticulously designed scenography and layered electronic textures. The performance balances fragile melodies and propulsive rhythms, driven by dense soundscapes and intimate moments that reveal the emotional core of his work, inviting listeners into a concentrated, cinematic sonic experience.

3 – 11 February

Directed by Joël Maillard and adapted from Nina Yargekov’s novel, Double nationalité is a choral theatrical investigation into identity and its contradictions. Four actresses — Cécile Goussard, Mélina Martin, Alicia Packer and Marie Ripoll — embody a single heroine and the chorus of her inner thoughts, navigating bilingual disorientation, memory and fantasy. Mélissa Rouvinet’s scenography, Antoine Françoise’s music and Édouard Hügli’s lighting create a dreamlike, often sharp atmosphere. Production by Cie SNAUT; costumes by Coralie Chauvin and sound by Cédric Simon.

8 January – 8 March

Winter of Caecilia gathers seven local theatre productions that revisit contemporary and classic forms through monologue and solo performance. Artists such as Nastassja Tanner, Ahmed Belbachir, Roland Vouilloz and Vincent Jacquet offer intimate, visceral interpretations, while texts by playwrights like Fabrice Melquiot are brought to life under directors including Jean‑Yves Ruf. The programme mixes poetic, comic and physically charged pieces that privilege sensory staging and emotional immediacy, inviting audiences into distinct, singular theatrical universes.

3 – 7 February

Created by the company Alliance Créative, COMME UN LUNDI is a fully improvised theatre piece that probes the textures of modern work life. The five performers — Nina Cachelin, Deborah Chirenti, Malik Kaufmann, Adrien Laplana and Eric Lecoultre — conjure shifting office micro-worlds, from awkward ambition to quiet complicity. Through rapid character shifts, minimalist staging and elastic rhythm, the troupe maps rivalries, unspoken desires and the absurdity of ‘bullshit jobs’, producing moments both comic and quietly unsettling.
