Gli Angeli Genève

Booking Required

Under the direction of Stephan MacLeod, Gli Angeli Genève delve into Christoph Willibald Gluck’s Iphigénie en Tauride with a luminous period-informed approach. Soloists Tamara Bounazou (soprano), Antonin Rondepierre (tenor), Thomas Dolié (baritone) and Edwin Fardini (bass) shape an intimate dramatic arc, where elegant phrasing and warm continuo textures reveal the work’s moral intensity and lyrical clarity. The programme balances orchestral refinement and vocal expressivity for a concentrated operatic portrait.

Sharing the bill, The Lawdy Mamas — four Geneva-based women — channel raw Southern blues and 1970s rock, delivering high-energy, road-worn guitar-driven performances.

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.

17 September – 18 December

Created by Manon Bril and Etienne Lautrette and directed by Théo Comby Lemaitre, this hybrid lecture-performance blends scholarly rigour with theatrical wit. Historian Manon Bril guides the audience through surprising episodes of human history, overturning assumptions with a sharp, offbeat humour and playful staging. The show mixes clear popular-science explanation, theatrical images and comic timing to reveal that nothing has “always been like this”.

28 October – 8 November

Directed by Eléonore Bonah and staged by scenographer Maria Clara Castioni, CHRÜSIMÜSI transforms Adelheid Duvanel’s terse, poetic fragments into a multilingual theatrical tapestry. Performers Eléonore Bonah and Maria Clara Castioni inhabit hypersensitive, marginal characters whose everyday gestures oscillate between absurdity and tenderness. Sparse staging and a careful interplay of voice and silence highlight Duvanel’s Kafkaesque intimacy, while language shifts (French, German, Italian) create a fragile, dreamlike atmosphere that balances humour and quiet despair, celebrating stubborn acts of resistance.

Saturday 29 October, 19:30

A comic lecture-show that makes the DISC method accessible through four colourful characters: Roger (the Dominant), Justine (the Influential), Virginie (the Stable) and Bernard (the Conscientious). Blending theatre and practical pedagogy, the performance uses humour and concrete tools to illuminate behavioural styles and improve interpersonal and professional communication. Adaptable for corporate conferences or public audiences, it balances lively sketches with clear takeaways to help participants recognise their patterns and communicate more effectively.

28 October – 9 April

Double Jeu is a sharp, playful improvisation show built around strategy, split-second choices and mutual misdirection. Each performer receives a secret mission and must weave it discreetly into the action, turning every scene into a live game of influence, bluff and comic escalation. The result is fast, unpredictable theatre where the ensemble’s timing, listening and inventiveness keep the audience guessing until the very last exchange.
