Nonante’s Lausanne quartet crafts an elegant, nocturnal new wave: enveloping synthesizers, wave-like guitars, precise rhythms and a clear, centered vocal. Around singer Nicolas Roussi the music builds by contrasts — suspended moments that give way to stronger pulses and open refrains. The band’s sound evokes calm, slightly melancholic urban nights pierced by flashes of light. Line-up: Adrien (bass, synths, drum machines), Ritz (synths), Nico (vocals, guitar), Sebastian (guitar).
Created collectively by the company À l’Ouest with Guillaume Pidancet, this inventive staging reimagines Charles Perrault’s Bluebeard for families. Performed in a mobile truck‑theatre that becomes a ‘suitcase of dreams,’ the production blends playful storytelling, poetic imagery and close‑up interaction to transform a dark tale into a gentle exploration of curiosity and trust. The intimate ensemble features Pierre Boulben, Hugo Braillard and Loubna Raigneau.

Directed by Oscar Gómez Mata and Bastien Semenzato, this staging brings together 16 young performers from La Manufacture’s promotion O to tackle Hamlet in its entirety. Combining tragic force with mordant, absurd humour, the piece explores how the past splashes into the present and how institutions unravel. Using the jeu bouffon — masks, exaggeration and the subversion of power — the ensemble shifts between farce, violent outbursts and intimate doubt as the prince teeters between thought and action.

Graines de Ciel – on the road is a poetic, theatrical-musical encounter conceived by Latifa Djerbi and produced by Compagnie Les Faiseurs de Rêves. Five artist-donors — Nyna Loren, Latifa Djerbi, Amanda Cepero, Mehdi Djouad and Arthur Mettrayer — alternate between sung, spoken and instrumental fragments to create intimate, restorative micro-performances. The piece offers individual poético-musical bubbles and brief rooftop stage presentations that invite quiet reflection and renewed audacity.

Led by Thierry Courlet (voice, piano, compositions), Le Thierryble revisits 1960s–70s rock with French-language lyrics that blend bittersweet poetry and wry paranoia. Electric guitars give way to cello and delicate arrangements by Vartan Baonian, while Maëllie’s vocal textures and percussion colour the sound. Influences such as Pink Floyd, the Beatles and Genesis surface without pastiche, creating melancholic, cinematic moments. Presented within the Musique à Pont-Rouge programme in collaboration with FA-MI, the set feels intimate and reflective.
