Written by Penda Diouf and staged by Evelyne Castellino, LA GRANDE OURSE is an ecofeminist fable that traces a mother’s descent after a minor incident becomes criminalized. Combining video, choreographed movement and choral voices, the piece weaves police violence, racism and sexism into a hallucinatory, dystopian world where omnipresent surveillance watches every gesture. As the heroine reconnects with ancestral nature by transforming into a bear, the production evokes animal survival instinct, collective gossip and the fragile line between humanity and wildness, offering a visceral, poetic reflection on power and resistance.

28 & 29 March

Performed by Édouard Louis and directed by Thomas Ostermeier, this terse, unflinching monologue examines the premature exhaustion of a father’s body and traces the social forces that shaped it. A sequence of fragments alternates indignation, vengeance and abiding tenderness. Nina Wetzel’s scenography, Caroline Tavernier’s costumes and Erich Schneider’s lighting frame a stark, intimate staging, while Sylvain Jacques’ music and the dramaturgy of Florian Borchmeyer and Élisa Leroy shape its rhythm.

Performed by Françoise Boillat, this intimate staging of Sophocles’ Antigone reimagines the tragedy through sparse, elemental theatricality. The actress confronts authority and allegiance beneath seven remarkable trees, whose silent presence frames tensions between law, nature and personal freedom. The production emphasises stark gestures, close physicality and a raw vocal intensity, letting heritage and dissent resonate through wind and shadow. Audiences are invited into a meditative, tactile encounter with the myth.

26 – 29 March

Created by Collectif Humagine, La baleine 52 hertz examines autism and neurodivergent thought through intimate theatrical language. Written and performed by Valentina Luporini and Cédric Schaerer, the piece pairs Luporini’s dramaturgical voice with Schaerer’s multi-instrumental practice to shape its soundscape. The company, founded in 2023, draws artists from theatre, circus and music to explore compensation mechanisms, learning processes, emotional load and the distinct languages of autism, with a focused attention on feminine expressions often underdiagnosed.
