Festival OSR returns for its seventh edition with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande presenting a three‑evening programme that spans classical repertoire, a live ciné‑concert of Hitchcock’s cinema, and a jazz evening paying tribute to Joséphine Baker. Outdoor on a grassy setting, the series favours intimate, atmospheric performances where orchestral colours, cinematic soundscapes and swinging rhythms meet. Artistic direction highlights collaboration between soloists and the ensemble, offering evocative, finely crafted interpretations and a vibrant communal listening experience.
Returning for its twentieth edition, Les Aubes brings softness and poetry to Geneva mornings. At dawn, intimate musical encounters offer delicate soundscapes that stir the senses, favouring close listening and subtle atmospheres. The programme highlights a variety of acoustic and experimental projects, from solo performances to chamber ensembles, each designed to awaken the city with refined timbres and attentive pacing. A gentle celebration of morning listening and communal presence.
Charles Nouveau offers an intimate, fast-paced solo improvised show built entirely from audience prompts. With razor-sharp comic timing and playful curiosity, he turns themes suggested by the room into spontaneous sketches, jokes and conversations. Each performance is unique, mixing candid interaction with surreal detours and unpredictable stand-up rhythms, inviting the audience to co-create the evening. Runs about one hour and foregrounds improvisation as a theatrical experiment.

Directed by Louis Bonard, Les Voüéces follows two reclusive women, Rodogonde and Frénéjus, who live atop a high tower. Louis Bonard and Michèle Gurtner wrote and perform a piece in an enchanted pseudo‑medieval tongue where voice, embroidery and play weave a poetic fable. The performance probes silence, the passage of time, guilt and the unsettling presence of other voices — ghostly, culpable or absurd — with a blend of darkness and dark humour.

Two unexpected deities arrive by bicycle, guided by a capricious GPS, carrying a very serious object: the Wheel of Fortune. They need the audience—especially children—to spin the wheel and together invent a story about a child to whom nothing seems to go right. Misfortunes pile up, luck sticks to the sneakers and solutions must be imagined. A participatory musical tale where chance and imagination shape a different story each time.
In French. Kids ages 5 and up.
Operation Transat’s Le Grand Village transforms public space into a nomadic, poetic microcosm. The itinerant theatre company sets up tents, caravans and open-air spaces where artists, residents and passers-by meet through a varied programme of short plays, object theatre, puppetry, circus, concerts, readings and workshops. Intimate and communal, the installation invites close encounters, spontaneous discoveries and participatory moments, offering playful, moving and theatrical experiences for audiences of all ages.
