These two evenings present the work of Anna-Marija Adomaitytė, Jerson Diasonama and Maud Blandel, created through collaborative dialogue with non‑professional participants. Across performance, film projection, collective listening and polyphonic conversations, the programme explores how encounters reshape artistic practice and affect those involved. Three works are presented: La Vraie Version (radio piece), I Think You Should Be Here (short film) and Jogo de Dentro (performance).

FURTHER AFIELD
Presented as part of the fiftieth edition of Festival de la Bâtie, this late-stage production by Robert Wilson draws its creative power from the polymorphic poetry of Fernando Pessoa. Like a magic mirror, Pessoa – Since I’ve Been Me illuminates the nuances of Wilson’s singular aesthetic: meticulous stagecraft, visionary fantasy and boundless imagination. Seven virtuosic performers, including Maria de Meideros, embody Pessoa and his heteronyms in a poetic, visually arresting mise en scène.
Anitya — L’Impermanence is a participatory solo circus performance by acrobat Inbal Ben Haim. Set among a web of taut, intertwined ropes, the piece explores impermanence, letting go and collective reconstruction. Ben Haim’s mastery of the corde lisse produces striking visual tableaux, blending physical virtuosity with intimate audience interaction as spectators are invited to untangle and lift the performer. The work is atmospheric and sculptural, balancing tension, release and quiet resilience.
An intimate aerial encounter, Une rencontre suspendue brings together hair suspension, acrobatic play, guitar harmonies and a textured singing voice. Conceived by the collective Association VOILÀ VOILÀ, this short creation features aerial acrobat Lili Parson Piguet and musician Jeanne Pâris. The piece mixes fragile physicality and musical intimacy to trace a delicate complicity between movement and sound, where everyday materials become instruments of tension and tenderness. Presented as a compact, sensory performance within the festival context.
Un conseil d’ami is a taut, intimate theatre piece that probes the fragile ties between friendship and trust. The staging favours close-up interactions, subtle lighting and spare design to heighten emotional detail. Performers move between colloquial realism and heightened, poetic moments, navigating moral ambiguity and small acts of care. The piece invites concentration on gesture, voice and timing, offering a quietly intense experience of human connection and moral questioning.

Choreographed by Saša Asentić, Le Sacre du printemps is a reimagined Stravinsky landmark performed by the inclusive company Per.Art.

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.
