Le Poids des Choses

Created and performed by Camille Boitel and Sève Bernard, Le Poids des Choses turns gravity into a playful laboratory. Through a series of short, witty scenes for adults and children, heavy objects become featherlight while everyday gestures grow unexpectedly arduous. Objects seem to acquire a life of their own as bodies slip the laws of physics; an anvil floats and trunks fall upwards. Precise technique and discreet virtuosity animate a visually striking, mischievous performance that blends wonder, humour and silent astonishment.

Stéphane Blok returns with City 8047, an album shaped in Zurich and recorded live on guitar and voice, with no post-production edits. His acoustic playing folds melody, harmony and percussion into the same gesture, creating raw, stripped-down arrangements that feel both immediate and intimate. The songs move between irony and emotion, reflecting on AI, virtuality, fakery and dehumanization without slipping into polemic. Each track keeps its own resonance, carried by precise lyrics and a singular stage presence.

29 October – 1 November

Oscar M. Damianaki’s Sacré Saoulé gathers a collective of performers to examine mourning, anger and exhaustion through a charged, intimate choreography. The piece moves between bitterness and tenderness, exploring a grief born of ongoing oppression that resists closure. Performers Tejus Menon and Davia Spain cocreate a physical language informed by discreet eroticism. Lighting by Tiki and costumes by Arsen Aeby shape a tense, tactile atmosphere. Co-produced by Emergentia.

The performance balances emotion and surprise, with spontaneous interactions and a contagious energy that brings the artist close to his audience.

The piece is electrifying and tender, inviting audiences into an energetic communal experience.

Guihome returns with a finely observed one‑man show that traces the passage from childhood to adulthood through a gallery of new characters and a naturalistic staging.
