British vocalist Lucy Thomas joins pianist James Breckon in an intimate piano-and-voice recital that bridges classical crossover, pop and musical theatre. Thomas’s soaring timbre and theatrical phrasing reinterpret film themes and Broadway melodies alongside original songs, while Breckon’s sensitive accompaniment ranges from delicate pianissimos to rich, organ-tinged textures.

J-Pat is a likable schlaps in this one-man show that blends humour and lightness.

Written, directed and performed by Adrien Buensod and Maxence Marmy, Le vol des mouettes is an absurd tragicomedy about isolation and the ritualisation of bureaucracy. Two government agents stranded on a remote island decode confidential messages as routine and procedure acquire surreal weight. Actor director Martine Corthésy shapes the performers’ delicate balance between precision and bewilderment; Lam Do sculpts the world with spare lighting and technical design. The piece unfolds with dark humour and lingering unease, attentive to timing and silence.
