The Biopark is temporarily hosting Janus, a unique two-headed Greek tortoise, during the renovation of the Museum. Each head of this male tortoise has its own independent brain, which sometimes makes its movements challenging. In captivity, Janus receives attentive care, resulting in an impressive lifespan of 26 years.
Carried by five performers, this circus piece transforms an ordinary waiting area into a cinematic stage where time subtly shifts. Acrobatics, juggling, tightwire and aerial apparatus interweave as bodies lift, fall and catch one another. With a blend of poetry, humour and tenderness, the company explores chance encounters and the small moments that reshape relationships. Created collectively with Maxime Wermelinger (trapeze), Matthias Bruchez (juggling), Ana Clara Hauri (aerial fabric), Europe Fayet (aerial hoop) and Ismaël Robert Flandin. Produced by Cirque à Brac.
Directed and choreographed by Nicolas Barry, La Demande d’asile stages the brutality of the asylum procedure through the bodies and voices of two performers, Sophie Billon and Nangaline Gomis. Blending dance and theatre, the piece makes administrative violence tangible and centres the specific difficulties faced by LGBTQIA+ people when forced to narrate their histories and identities under interrogation. Sparse scenography and intense physicality probe memory, vulnerability and survival.
