Jean Felzine — Vostok Session

Free

Jean Felzine, a singer-songwriter from Clermont-Ferrand, brings a cinematic, American-inflected pop that oscillates between raw honesty and careful craft. Drawing on 50s rock, French chanson and electronic loops, his Vostok Session performance reframes songs from his solo album Chord Memory alongside material from past projects and collaborations. His voice navigates intimate, nostalgic tones and playful pop hooks, while understated arrangements evoke warm, retro-tinged atmospheres that invite focused listening and quiet reflection.

The production favors close observation and emotional clarity, inviting reflection on attachment and the traces left behind.

D’amour et d’eau fraîche

Performances

Théâtre du Loup

Directed by Rémi Dufay, D’amour et d’eau fraîche is a stage adventure that celebrates movement, friendship and the unforeseen. Rémi Dufay and his ensemble probe margins and fragile frames, staging situations that slip away in a deliberately unsteady ceremony. The production blurs reality and magic, carrying the audience through a joyful, rocambolic wandering. A lively, generous performance that refuses stillness and favours continual transformation.

Six heures plus tard

Performances

Théâtre Saint-Gervais

Written by Stéphane Bouquet, Six heures plus tard is an intimate stage performance for two performers that explores the fragile bonds between a man and a woman through poetic text, live-filmed images, spare lighting and pared-down stage presence. The piece treats silence as a shared, collective resource and recomposes itself according to each venue’s architecture and the state of the bodies, creating an unusual proximity and contemplative atmosphere.

Le Truc sur le feu

Performances

Théâtre des Marionnettes

Le Truc sur le feu is a playful, offbeat fable that examines how the domestication of fire shaped human life. Written by Romane Nicolas, the piece stages two Paleolithic clans who wonder, clash and ignite as puppets by the Kokoschka tradition bring grotesque situations to life. With incisive humour and sharp theatricality, the show confronts ideas of progress, individuality versus community, animality and civilisation, offering a vividly staged reflection on the choices that set societies alight.
