Titi Robin and Roberto Saadna, iconic figures in the world of Gypsy music, reunite for a new show as part of the Plan-les-Ouates Cultural Season 2025-2026. Their collaboration, which dates back to the 1990s, has been instrumental in ushering in a new wave of Gypsy music. Joined by the ensemble Ma Gavali, they present an original repertoire sung in Catalan Gypsy and Spanish, reflecting the essence of their albums “Gitans” and “Un ciel de cuivre.”
Raíces (meaning “roots” in Spanish) is a musical collaboration born from the meeting of Mariana Flores’ clear soprano and Simon Ghraichy’s passionate piano, blending Latin American nostalgia with French elegance, past memories with present connections.
Since their first encounter in 2016, the Argentine soprano and French-Mexican pianist have merged their cultures through music. Their program explores French melodies by Poulenc, Satie, and Fauré, alongside Spanish and Latin American pieces by Obradors, Piazzolla, Guastavino, and Lecuona.
“Paix” by Tiphanie Bovay-Klameth at Maison Saint-Gervais is a solo performance where she portrays all the characters in a work centered around the theme of peace. This production pays tribute to the spirit of community involvement and illustrates a diverse group coming together despite their differences. It delves into group dynamics and the individual’s role, while emphasizing the significance of popular culture as a vehicle for peace in an uncertain world.

Les Schubertiades de Thônex presents a compact festival of chamber music centred on Schubert and the Romantic repertoire. Across several evenings and family programming it juxtaposes intimate recital formats, thematic programmes exploring heritage and lyricism, and a gala concert that unites artists in a celebratory finale. The festival balances reflective, poetic moments with lively, accessible performances designed for both seasoned listeners and families, offering framed musical narratives and carefully curated instrumental colour.
Mariés au premier ringard is a sharp, character-driven theatrical comedy that dissects the absurdities of modern relationships with warmth and irony. The staging favors close ensemble interaction, a lean scenography and precise lighting that underline shifting loyalties and comic misunderstandings. Moments of tenderness puncture the satire, inviting reflection on intimacy, identity and the small rituals of coupling. It balances humour and poignancy to produce a lively theatrical pulse.

Choreographed by Tidiani N’Diaye, this urban parade is a collective moving performance that links choreography and civic engagement. Performers and participants wear costumes fashioned from colourful single-use plastic bags, a striking symbol of consumption’s excess and global imbalance. The work traces themes of North–South interconnection, climate and social justice, weaving ritual, rhythmic procession and communal singing into a vibrant public tableau. Created in collaboration with the Fédération genevoise de coopération for its 60th anniversary and Shap Shap, the parade is celebratory and questioning.
