Xavier Guelfi presents an intimate solo performance in which he embodies a clumsy, naive coach of happiness. Raised near Onex and known for film and stage roles, Guelfi greets the audience from a kitchen transformed into a timeless cocoon. With poetic physicality and Arlequin-like charm, he mixes gentle humour and existential reflection, inviting the public to dream and to reclaim faith in humanity. A suspended, comforting utopia that soothes and amuses.

BBBBBBB, the Japanese duo of Saionji (voice and sound production) and Sawa (voice), unleashes a sonic upheaval where digital hardcore collides with noise, industrial textures, trap and other unruly sounds. US guitarist Erica Dawn Lyle brings an intense, abrasive electric-guitar solo, carving a raw and uncompromising path through distortion and physical energy. Bamba Triste and Fuxy Lady round out the evening with a record-spinning set specially conceived for this occasion, extending the night’s adventurous, unruly soundscape.

29 October – 8 November

Adapted freely from Maryse Condé and Emily Brontë, this theatrical adaptation follows Razyé and Cathy across three generations in a post-emancipation Guadeloupe. Directed by Anne Monfort, the production probes themes of racism, passion, pride, social violence, vengeance and fatalism through a visceral, rhythmic staging. The ensemble uses sparse, evocative design and intense physical interplay to reveal how inherited trauma shapes desire and retribution.

28 October – 11 November

Set between domestication and escape, La zone nono follows a troupe of ragged yet endearing animals seeking community and freedom. Two table puppeteers and two musicians bring to life quirky creatures through live music and songs, blending humour and poetry. The staging balances intimacy and playful invention, exploring solidarity, resilience and the pull of the wild. The show is performed in French and mixes witty storytelling with musicality and inventive puppetry.

27 October – 15 November

Focus Jeune Création brings together a new generation of Romand artists over two weeks, presenting five bold and hybrid performances that blur theatre, performance and live art. The program explores emergent writing and stage practices— from plateau-based text to pieces rooted in the real—offering layered, often indisciplinary approaches that question formats and invent languages for a transforming world. Accompanying meetings and discussions extend the works and open insight into creative processes.

28 October – 8 November

Directed by Eléonore Bonah and staged by scenographer Maria Clara Castioni, CHRÜSIMÜSI transforms Adelheid Duvanel’s terse, poetic fragments into a multilingual theatrical tapestry. Performers Eléonore Bonah and Maria Clara Castioni inhabit hypersensitive, marginal characters whose everyday gestures oscillate between absurdity and tenderness. Sparse staging and a careful interplay of voice and silence highlight Duvanel’s Kafkaesque intimacy, while language shifts (French, German, Italian) create a fragile, dreamlike atmosphere that balances humour and quiet despair, celebrating stubborn acts of resistance.
