Kohan–Jordan Duo

Kohan and Jordan present a musical suite that blurs composition and improvisation. Claude Jordan (flutes) and Eduardo Kohan (tenor saxophone, bass clarinet, piano) weave arrangements of original pieces, altered songs and reimagined classical repertoire into a porous, bricolage-like soundscape. Sparse textures give way to sudden cascades, intimate dialogues and playful timbres, inviting attentive listening and surprise. The duo’s interplay foregrounds timbral contrast and conversational phrasing, producing an atmosphere at once contemplative, whimsical and vividly physical.

24 – 27 September

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.

In French.

15 September – 11 October

Directed by Françoise Courvoisier, this production of Anton Chekhov’s Oncle Vania — translated by Arthur Adamov — assembles a committed ensemble (Vincent Bonillo, Pierre Dubey, Bérangère Mastrangelo, Patricia Mollet-Mercier, Clarisse Morizot, Pierre Omer, Juliana Samarine, Edmond Vuilloud) to explore love, the passage of time and illusions lost. The staging, created with scenographer Gilbert Maire and painter André Kasper, uses Rinaldo Del Boca’s lighting, Pierre Omer’s music and Nicolas Le Roy’s sound to evoke both the comedy and the terrifying humanity of Chekhov.

In French.

24 September – 4 October

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.

An original Geneva jazz evening featuring the dynamic Big Up’ Band, presenting swing standards and crooner repertoire in an intimate club-style setting. The programme unfolds across two 45-minute live sets, offering a warm, lounge atmosphere ideal for relaxed listening while enjoying drinks and light bites. The arrangements focus on soulful vocals, tight horn charts and subtle rhythmic drive, highlighting improvisation and close interplay within a refined, late-night jazz mood.

Four master impressionists reunite for a comic revue exploring Francophone identities and stereotypes. Yann Lambiel, Steeve Diamond, Fabian Le Castel and Laurent Chandemerle switch between sketches and songs, delivering rapid-fire character voices and musical parodies. The new show condenses more than a decade of collaboration into ninety minutes of sharp observation, playful rivalry and vocal virtuosity, using some 400 impressions to probe what unites these artists across Belgium, Switzerland, France and Québec.

Does having a Swiss Federal Railways (SBB/CFF) first-class travel card mean you’ve made it in life? What were the people smoking who designed the Isle of Man flag? Have you ever tried Didier’s tiramisu? What do you call those triangular dividers on supermarket checkout conveyor belts? Should we compost our boogers? Are you manly even if you can’t lift a heavy suitcase? Who actually likes fireworks? Can you name your child Ragusa? All these questions (except two) are addressed in tchoutchou.mp3, Blaise Bersinger’s new, not-so-improvised one-man show. Oscillating between stand-up, concert, and a stroke, the Lausanne-based comedian offers you a rather silly and reassuring (train?) journey for your digestive system. As Douglas-Wolfgang Bersinger, Blaise’s fictional uncle, said two years after his brain removal: “aaha è gah”
