About the play
1942. France is under occupation. Seven friends gather to celebrate Sophie’s birthday—until two German officers are shot beneath their windows. Kaubach, a Nazi commander, forces the guests to make an unthinkable choice: to designate two hostages among themselves.
Thus begins a harrowing struggle for survival. By confronting the depths of human nature, the play invites us to question which side we would have chosen.

In French.

21 April – 10 May

Based on the Jekyll myth, this theatrical adaptation examines metamorphosis as both physical and social, probing identity, gender and the boundary between good and male/female. Stark black-and-white staging and chiaroscuro lighting evoke twilight and old horror films, while a persistent, slicing fog thickens the atmosphere. The venerable Dr Jekyll’s unsettling experiments unfold in a late-19th-century London laboratory, and his circle is drawn into mounting anguish as transformations accelerate.

In French.

The evening balances tenderness and rhythmic drive, blending lyrical songwriting with vibrant, percussive textures. Supported by the Pour-cent culturel Migros.

Choreographed by Riccardo Ardusso with supervision by Ilaria Giardina, this Swiss premiere fuses contemporary dance and modern orchestral repertoire. Renowned Ensemble Sinfonietta Bern anchors the programme with music from 20th and 21st‑century composers, while Ardusso’s choreography translates sonic textures into sculpted movement. The creative approach blends lyrical neoclassical vocabulary with contemporary gestures, framed by immersive lighting and sound design that shape shifting moods. The result is a tactile, introspective evening where music and bodies coalesce into a new perception of neoclassical language.
