Solstice d’hiver

Solstice Psychomanteon is a documentary-performative staging by Jean-Daniel Schneider and Helena Patricio that opens a poetic portal to invisible worlds. Combining song, performance and film, it transforms archival traces — letters, objects, garments, songs and contracts — into a staged device mixing video, ritual and live singing. Directed by JD Schneider and produced by Maison Suspecte, the piece investigates possession, ghosts and identity projection, inviting a porous encounter between visible and invisible realms.

Une heure de tranquillité

Théâtre du Crève-Coeur

A darkly comic solo play about obsession and domestic chaos.
