Marion Mezadorian – Craquage

Craquage, the second solo show by French comedian and writer Marion Mezadorian, presents a vibrant gallery of everyday characters — sixteen in total — each facing a silent personal crisis. From a weary mother to a local bartender or hairdresser, they all eventually break down and open up, sparking both laughter and emotion. Through their loud, heartfelt confessions, Mezadorian gives voice to the unspoken, turning trauma into comedy with warmth and perspective. Her infectious energy and charisma bring these very human moments to life, making Craquage a moving, funny, and unmissable gem.

In French.

4 November 2025 – 1 February 2026

Actor Samuel Labarthe turns Nicolas Bouvier’s fever-drenched memoir The Scorpion-Fish into a hypnotic, miniaturist tour de force: marooned in 1950s Ceylon after a headlong road trip from Geneva through the Balkans and Afghanistan, the once-ebullient traveller spirals into tropical delirium, trading human company for buzzing insects, mirage-bright visions and mordant humour that flits between the sublime and the grotesque. Under Catherine Schaub’s finely gauged direction, Labarthe channels both the lush lyricism and the slow-burn torment of this “motionless voyage,” distilling Bouvier’s languid prose into a tactile, rejuvenating elixir that lets the audience feel every bead of sweat, jolt of wonder and sting of isolation.

In French. Ages 12 and up.
