Led by two experts in visible and invisible heritage, this guided performance turns Saint‑Jean into an urban theatre where archives mingle with legends and personal testimony illuminates shadowed corners. The piece, born of research and encounters, moves between quiet listening and sudden revelations, blurring fact and memory. Audiences are invited into an immersive, collective journey that teases open the fissures of everyday life and reveals the dormant stories sleeping in ordinary streets.

Created by Aurélie Hubeau and Lucie Hanoy, L’IMPOSTURE is a comic and poetic exploration of doubt, self-image and belonging. The piece follows a woman who describes herself as too small, obese, ugly and a tomboy, and recounts how she forged an identity in today’s world. Using objects, clothing and puppets manipulated with inventive choreography, the performance weaves humor, poetry and music — from Patrick Bruel to gospel and karaoke — to celebrate difference and question social norms, delivering warmth and poignancy.

The piece leaves a lingering smile and a sense of affectionate irony.

Festa Mediterranea gathers musicians, dancers and tradition-bearers from Southern Italy in a celebration of communal ritual and seasonal renewal.

Textures of voice, percussion and folk stringed instruments conjure pastoral landscapes, proposing an ecology of sound where heritage is continuously reinvented. The experience is both exuberant and intimate, inviting shared movement and attentive listening.

Led by conductor Oleg Kaskiv with virtuoso violinist Roby Lakatos, this charity concert presented by Fondation Patiño traces a kaleidoscopic programme from Grieg and Sarasate to Saint-Saëns and Wieniawski, weaving classical forms with folk, klezmer and tango. Arrangements by Lakatos sit alongside Piazzolla’s melancholy tangos and virtuosic showpieces, while eclectic orchestral colours and agile solo lines conjure shifting atmospheres — from intimate lyricism to blazing virtuosity — inviting listeners into a vivid, cross-cultural soundworld.
