Le Corps de Claudine

Directed by Fabrice Gorgerat, Le Corps de Claudine stages a poetic, metaphorical exploration of a body marked by Parkinson’s disease and ageing. On a reduced domestic set, performers Fiamma Camesi, Shannon Granger and Christophe Jaquet inhabit a fragile, constrained body—between implants, heavy medication and memory—evoking intimacy, time’s erosion and the complex love between mother and son. The piece blends physical theatre and lyric imagery to probe vulnerability, care and the persistence of tenderness.

In French.

Created and performed by Igor Mamlenkov and directed by Kostya Novitskiy, Kto Tam? is a 60-minute non-verbal visual tragicomedy that explores exile, memory, loneliness and resilience. Through precise movement, object manipulation and evocative shadow play, Mamlenkov animates forgotten belongings into companions, transforming absence into tender, absurd and deeply human encounters. Drawing on Slavic physical theatre traditions, the piece uses gesture and poetic imagery to build a universal, wordless journey into the heart of solitude.

30 October – 7 November

Directed by Jean Bellorini in collaboration with Yang Hua Theatre, this staging reimagines Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s Le Petit Prince with the title character portrayed by a Chinese actor. The production blends French and Mandarin dialogue with live music by singers from China’s independent scene. Actors François Deblock and Marc Plas perform alongside a cast that shifts between a childlike prince, an ancient reciter of poems and fantastical cosmic inhabitants. The staging mixes song, poetry and intimate theatricality, exploring friendship and human connection.

In French and Mandarin.

30 October – 1 November

Novarina’s text is staged as a pulsating, jubilant language for seated singers: an archipelago of acts and unresolved gestures. Cascades of duos, liturgies of the circus, laments, spoken landscapes and fragmentary songs assemble into a corrosive poetic satire that probes the sonic, visual, semantic and rhythmic virtualities of speech. The piece interrogates political discourse, the press and the social image of man while privileging theatrical sound and corporeal invention. Produced by Studio d’Action Théâtrale as part of its 40th anniversary.

In French.

Friday 30 October, 21:00

Vagalumes opens the evening with an intimate South American‑infused jazz set, led by Sylvie Klijn (voice), Paul Gonzalez (guitar, maracas) and Samuel Boutros (percussion). Their repertoire blends original pieces, Spanish and Portuguese songs and a poetic Latin‑jazz atmosphere evoking Fernando Pessoa and Pablo Neruda. The second set features Baiju Bhatt & Red Sun — Baiju Bhatt (violin), Valentin Conus (tenor sax), Mark Priore (piano), Blaise Hommage (double bass) and Paul Berne (drums, percussion) — exploring a daring fusion of jazz‑rock, Indian traditions and contemporary textures.

30 October – 14 November

Four performers embody testimonies from different generations in Sept, situated at the crossroads of dance and film. Between intimate confidences and tender tableaux, the piece examines how age shapes us and stages a delicate exploration of what growing older means, revealing a shared humanity. The staging shifts between projected images and live bodies, weaving visual and physical layers to create an experience that is both poetic and unsettling.

Friday 30 October, 20:00
