The Montreux Jazz Festival takes place for two weeks every summer in Switzerland, on the shores of Lake Geneva. Created in 1967 by Claude Nobs and directed by Mathieu Jaton since 2013, the Montreux Jazz Festival has become over the years an essential event, generating fantastic stories and legendary performances.
In its 50 years history, Montreux has hosted iconic performances by artists including Nina Simone, Miles Davis, Aretha Franklin, Ella Fitzgerald, Marvin Gaye, Prince, Leonard Cohen, David Bowie, Elton John and Stevie Wonder. Deep Purple and Prince even helped to write the legend of the place in their songs, while David Bowie and Freddie Mercury came to live in the region and record albums.
Sous les Cendres is a powerful original creation by Acting Line Studio that plunges us into the heart of a fictional war-torn city, where four young women take refuge in a theatre as bombs fall around them. Inspired by the Mariupol tragedy and shaped through months of collaborative work, this urgent and intimate play explores the devastation of war, the fragility of human bonds, and the quiet resilience of those who endure. A raw, poetic tribute to life and to theatre as a space of truth, resistance, and memory.
