Performed by Nicolas Maury, this solo reading of Sarah Kane’s 4.48 Psychosis offers an intimate, unflinching journey into depression and the limits of language. Vanasay Khamphommala’s French translation preserves Kane’s fragmented rhythm and emotional intensity. The staging favors minimalism, with a solitary voice, sparse lighting and focused sound design to magnify the text’s raw immediacy. The performance invites sustained listening and emotional immersion.

Choreographer and performer Marco D’Agostin fuses scientific lecture, musical comedy and intimate confession in Astéroïde. Posing as a paleontologist, he handles ancient bones while tracing the extinction of dinosaurs, but the scholarly frame cracks as memory, desire and song spill out. A solo that shifts between popular science, theatre and Broadway‑style numbers, it explores loss and survival with wit, physical precision and theatrical exuberance. Produced with Piccolo Teatro di Milano.

Choreographed by Saša Asentić, Le Sacre du printemps is a reimagined Stravinsky landmark performed by the inclusive company Per.Art. Drawing on historical versions by the Ballets Russes, Maurice Béjart and Pina Bausch and enriched with the voices of disabled poets from Serbia, Iran, Ukraine and the United States, the seven dancers invert the original narrative. The staging transforms ritual into a manifesto of survival, blending physical rigor, collective solidarity and poetic testimony to renew the score as a cry for life.
Led by singer-composer Arash Barez, the Aseman Ensemble blends Afghan and Japanese voices to reimagine tradition through contemporary sound. The group features rubab master Kengo Saito, Mojtaba Habibi (co‑founder of Kabul Dreams), violinist Alia Païenda, guitarist Abi Rezai and guest vocalist Dawood Pazhman. Their music intertwines Persian poetry, modal textures and modern arrangements, creating intimate, luminous moments that shift into collective catharsis. Presented as part of the Blooming Afghanistan programme, the concert privileges cultural resilience and shared memory.
Choreographed by Christos Papadopoulos, My Fierce Ignorant Step gathers ten bodies whose mounting breath becomes the show’s engine. The piece translates performers’ respiration into kinetic waves and layered soundscapes, dialoguing with the contemporary music of Mikis Theodorakis. Drawing on the choral pulse of ancient tragedy, the work collapses collective Hellenic memory into intimate reveries — the impulse of beginnings, the buoyancy of first encounters and the spontaneous spark of early laughter. The staging is physical, precise and visceral.
