8 – 13 September

Choreographed by Saša Asentić, Le Sacre du printemps is a reimagined Stravinsky landmark performed by the inclusive company Per.Art. Drawing on historical versions by the Ballets Russes, Maurice Béjart and Pina Bausch and enriched with the voices of disabled poets from Serbia, Iran, Ukraine and the United States, the seven dancers invert the original narrative. The staging transforms ritual into a manifesto of survival, blending physical rigor, collective solidarity and poetic testimony to renew the score as a cry for life.

Shyle Zalewski invites audiences into a two-part evening combining zine culture and an intimate concert. The first part presents a meeting and signing of self-published fanzines, foregrounding handwritten narratives and the DIY community around the artist. Later, under the alter ego edam edam, Zalewski offers a live set that blends fragile melodies and lo-fi textures, shifting the room from quiet reflection to charged immediacy. The night foregrounds intimacy, creative exchange, and the blurred line between reading and song.

27 August – 18 October

Scène Vagabonde’s seventh edition brings a compact program of contemporary theatre and music, presenting three contrasting stage works — “Par le bout du nez”, “Quadrille” and “Prima facie” — alongside a concert by Orchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp as part of La Bâtie-Festival de Genève. Across intimate stagings the festival favors inventive direction, close ensemble interplay and a balance of wit and intensity, offering encounters that privilege physical presence, tonal variety and rigorous dramaturgy.

Led by singer-composer Arash Barez, the Aseman Ensemble blends Afghan and Japanese voices to reimagine tradition through contemporary sound. The group features rubab master Kengo Saito, Mojtaba Habibi (co‑founder of Kabul Dreams), violinist Alia Païenda, guitarist Abi Rezai and guest vocalist Dawood Pazhman. Their music intertwines Persian poetry, modal textures and modern arrangements, creating intimate, luminous moments that shift into collective catharsis. Presented as part of the Blooming Afghanistan programme, the concert privileges cultural resilience and shared memory.

8 – 9 September

Choreographed by Christos Papadopoulos, My Fierce Ignorant Step gathers ten bodies whose mounting breath becomes the show’s engine. The piece translates performers’ respiration into kinetic waves and layered soundscapes, dialoguing with the contemporary music of Mikis Theodorakis. Drawing on the choral pulse of ancient tragedy, the work collapses collective Hellenic memory into intimate reveries — the impulse of beginnings, the buoyancy of first encounters and the spontaneous spark of early laughter. The staging is physical, precise and visceral.

By Anton Tchekhov, L’Ours et la Demande en mariage is staged by Tibor Ockenfels and Flavie Tapparel in a spirited production that turns comedy into a vivid duel. The direction highlights the clash between conventions and desire, while set and lighting carve intimate, rhythmical confrontations. Through absurd yet touching quarrels the actors reveal tenderness beneath pride, exploring marriage, social rules and human foibles. Produced by Théâtre de Carouge with the support of Fondation Leenaards.
