Nourrir l’Humanité c’est un métier

Booking Required

Created and performed by Charles, son of farmers and an actor, this documentary theatre piece brings the voices of those who feed us to the stage. Through collected testimonies and intimate staging, the production blends reportage and theatrical immersion to explore rural labour, attachment to the land and ethical questions around agriculture. The performance is deeply human, at times poignant and confronting, inviting reflection on care, sustenance and our relationship to the living.

Faire Hamlet !

Performances

Théâtre de l'Orangerie

Directed by Valeria Bertolotto, Faire Hamlet! stages a company wrestling with performance and truth as rehearsals of Shakespeare’s prince unravel private tensions.

Garaventa

Performances

Théâtre de l'Orangerie

Garaventa’s debut album Casual Drama fuels a live set that fuses post‑punk grit, deviant disco and obsessive kraut trance. On stage the quartet channels glam sensibilities and punk dancefloor energy, pushing toward an intense psychedelic trance. The performance mixes taut rhythms, propulsive bass and shouted harmonies. Band members CJ (keys, vocals), Baptiste (percussion, vocals), Tim (drums) and Souf (bass) carve a dense, immersive soundscape that favours repetition and ecstatic momentum.
