Tania Dutel returns with a new fourth show that sharpens her observational wit into a daring theatrical experiment. Mixing stand-up energy with fragmented narrative and quicksilver timing, she probes miscommunication, identity and the chaos of modern intimacy. Minimal staging and precise rhythms magnify bursts of tenderness and corrosive humour, creating a performance that unsettles and delights. A compact, incisive evening from a fiercely original voice.

“Wasted Land” by Ntando Cele at the Maison Saint-Gervais combines song, music, dance, and multimedia to tackle the climate crisis. The performance shifts between dynamic and contemplative multidisciplinary sequences, highlighting the destruction wrought by fast fashion and the often hypocritical ecological responses, contrasting impoverished nations with Western powers.
Created collectively by the company À l’Ouest with Guillaume Pidancet, this inventive staging reimagines Charles Perrault’s Bluebeard for families. Performed in a mobile truck‑theatre that becomes a ‘suitcase of dreams,’ the production blends playful storytelling, poetic imagery and close‑up interaction to transform a dark tale into a gentle exploration of curiosity and trust. The intimate ensemble features Pierre Boulben, Hugo Braillard and Loubna Raigneau.

REQUIEM POUR DU POGNON is a musical comedy that unfolds as a blackly comic inheritance farce. After the death of wealthy entrepreneur Marcel, a large, fractious family gathers to read the will: a humiliated widow, a lovesick secretary, an avaricious mistress, a dull son, neurotic daughters and grasping cousins. Songs, ensemble numbers and moments of karaoke expose secrets, rivalries and petty betrayals, shifting between biting satire and tender absurdity while the stage pulses with chaotic, carnival-like energy.

Directed as an in situ promenade, this performance follows two protagonists, P. and B., through the city’s hidden seams. B. conspires to seed an exuberant vegetal uprising, mastering invasive plants to unsettle urban order. P. slips into the city’s blind spots, picking locks and slipping through barriers to reveal alternative ways of inhabiting public space. The show mixes physical theatre, poetic staging and ecological imagination to explore rewilding, intimacy and civic subversion.
