Trois femmes au bord de la crise de mère is a poignant theatrical exploration of motherhood, identity and frustration. Through intimate dialogues and heightened physicality, the piece balances sharp humour with moments of quiet intensity. Sparse staging and focused lighting carve out private spaces that reveal hidden desires and generational tensions. The ensemble’s interactions shift between satire and tenderness, inviting reflection on daily labor, emotional limits and the resilient bonds that hold family life together.

In French.

21 April – 10 May

Based on the Jekyll myth, this theatrical adaptation examines metamorphosis as both physical and social, probing identity, gender and the boundary between good and male/female. Stark black-and-white staging and chiaroscuro lighting evoke twilight and old horror films, while a persistent, slicing fog thickens the atmosphere. The venerable Dr Jekyll’s unsettling experiments unfold in a late-19th-century London laboratory, and his circle is drawn into mounting anguish as transformations accelerate.

Set in Paris, 1897, this spiritist improvisation centres on Natalia Fox, a darkly sensual tarot reader and pendulum expert whose séances blur psychology and the uncanny. Each performance stages four intimate consultations for eccentric clients, letting improvisation shape revelations conjured by incense, whispered voices and flickering light. The show moves between sly comedy and unsettling insight, exploring fate, desire and the mechanics of belief while inviting the audience into a charged, sensory ritual.

23 April – 13 May

Performed and choreographed by Eugénie Rebetez, COMEBACK is a solo exploration of artistic, female and maternal identity. On stage she shifts through extravagant costumes and a blend of choreography, song and gesture, crafting scenic images that are both poetic and comic. The work moves between introspection and humour, intertwining contemporary dance and stand-up rhythms to question the artist’s status. Co-produced by Tanzhaus Zürich, Casino Théâtre de Rolle, Théâtre Boulimie and LE POCHE, it offers an intimate, unsettling and hilarious journey.

About the play
1942. France is under occupation. Seven friends gather to celebrate Sophie’s birthday—until two German officers are shot beneath their windows. Kaubach, a Nazi commander, forces the guests to make an unthinkable choice: to designate two hostages among themselves.
Thus begins a harrowing struggle for survival. By confronting the depths of human nature, the play invites us to question which side we would have chosen.

In French.
