Insân, whose title means “human” in Arabic and etymologically “one who forgets”, is a choreography for three performers set on a floor of stone and rubble. The piece interrogates memory and the vertiginous lightness of forgetting: bodies wrench themselves from gravity or sink into it, as if laying down what they carry finally allows them to dance. Beneath the movement, the work evokes the violence of a world that erases its own traces.
Kids from 6 years old.
This performance investigates vocal plasticity, improvisation, and emotional communication, frequently in collaboration with museums and contemporary art spaces. Combining musical and choreographic improvisation, it questions the dominant frameworks and hierarchies embedded in language.
Creative workshops for children where they learn to make natural cosmetics—like fruity soaps and lip balms—using healthy, eco-friendly ingredients. These fun, hands-on sessions raise kids’ awareness of nature and ecology while letting them proudly take home their handmade creations.

Une Simple Histoire is a tender musical tribute to the late Michel Bühler, celebrating his songs, poetry and humanism. Directed by Roland Vouilloz, the staging brings together Sylvie Bourban (voice) and Jean-Philippe Zwahlen (guitar) in an intimate duet that traces Bühler’s storytelling and travels.

Douglas Vanille is an intergalactic DJ performance merging live indie dance rhythms with dark disco textures. After fleeing the destruction of his home planet Kiwi32, the solitary DJ pilots a tiny vessel while pursued and battered by cosmic hazards. On stage the audience becomes his crew and the room a cockpit, guided by propulsive grooves and luminous sound design. Accompanied by his robotic companion K‑R4MEL, the show invites sustained movement and nocturnal reverie.
Jeremy Ratib performs material from his album Backlot Country, a hazy window onto an adolescence in Los Angeles where Halloween spectres, bushfires that redden Pacific sunsets and empty pools echo post‑Y2K nostalgia amid kickflip cadences. Rooted in folk songwriting, the music unfolds as homemade psychedelic country‑rock emo, intimate and evocative. Ratib is joined by Valentin Liechti (drums, vocals), Robin Girod (bass, guitar, vocals), Flavie Ndam (saxophone, vocals), Lorraine Dinkel (guitar, vocals) and Lucas Churet (sound).
