Rue du clocher 12

After their grandmother’s death, three sisters, separated by life and years, meet in the attic of the family home. The house—large and dusty, with creaking floorboards and faded wallpaper—becomes a stage for recollection. The story follows Luce, Emmanuelle and Emée, with Denise present in the background; objects, yellowed photographs and the smell of old books trigger memories. Performed by Cécile Adèle Basset, Alice Berlamont and Victoria Duquesne, the piece explores memory, loss and the intimate archaeology of domestic life.

Le Truc sur le feu is a playful, offbeat fable that examines how the domestication of fire shaped human life. Written by Romane Nicolas, the piece stages two Paleolithic clans who wonder, clash and ignite as puppets by the Kokoschka tradition bring grotesque situations to life. With incisive humour and sharp theatricality, the show confronts ideas of progress, individuality versus community, animality and civilisation, offering a vividly staged reflection on the choices that set societies alight.
