Performer and poet Katerina Apostolopoulou reads extracts from the Artemis serials, weaving myth and contemporary reflection through lyrical narration. Projected images taken from the books accompany the reading, creating a visual echo that expands the tales for listeners of all ages. The session is presented as part of a larger 100-episode cycle designed for aloud sharing across generations, with contributions by Murielle Szac and Noëlle Reymond.

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.
Text by Erri De Luca. Directed by Barbara Baker and F‑X Fernandez‑Cavada, Impossible unfolds after a man falls from a steep trail in the Dolomites. Blending investigation, memory and love letters, the staging probes guilt, betrayal and political history as two former members of the same terrorist group confront a shared past. The production balances documentary clarity and poetic fragments, offering a tense, intimate reflection on vengeance and the echoes of the 20th century into the present.

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.

Directed by Gabriel Sparti, Menace Chorale follows an amateur town choir drawn into a tightening ideological mechanism under a charismatic new conductor. The piece uses vocal textures and staged rehearsals to contrast luminous harmonies with the unsettling meanings behind their repertoire, sketching a miniature society where desire, ambition and collective pressure calcify into authoritarian dynamics. Through subtle disruptions, layered readings and meticulous sound and lighting textures, the production feels at once funny, eerie and incisively political.

Directed by Rebecca Stella and adapted with Danielle Barthélemy, Cendrillon blends classic fairy-tale drama with manga-inspired staging. Pili Loop’s original score, Mathieu Courtaillier’s lighting and the set by Camille Ansquer shape a vivid, contemporary universe. Costumes by Alice Toutev and Sonia Bosc and choreography by Léon add playful movement and character. Anthony Surleraux’s video projections and graphics expand the tale’s visual world, pairing tradition with modern theatrical textures.

Stéphane Blok returns with City 8047, an album shaped in Zurich and recorded live on guitar and voice, with no post-production edits. His acoustic playing folds melody, harmony and percussion into the same gesture, creating raw, stripped-down arrangements that feel both immediate and intimate. The songs move between irony and emotion, reflecting on AI, virtuality, fakery and dehumanization without slipping into polemic. Each track keeps its own resonance, carried by precise lyrics and a singular stage presence.
