Tiwayo returns with Outsider, an intimate yet expansive soul album produced by Adrián Quesada. Fronting his full band, the Parisian singer-songwriter—nicknamed “The Young Old” for his timeless voice—moves between southern soul, blues and travel-worn melodies. Collaborations with Doyle Bramhall II and Kendra Morris add depth to arrangements that favour raw, authentic expression. On stage, the band blends warm grooves, gritty guitar and emotive vocals to create a direct, soul-centred experience.
Directed by Rémi Dufay, D’amour et d’eau fraîche is a stage adventure that celebrates movement, friendship and the unforeseen. Rémi Dufay and his ensemble probe margins and fragile frames, staging situations that slip away in a deliberately unsteady ceremony. The production blurs reality and magic, carrying the audience through a joyful, rocambolic wandering. A lively, generous performance that refuses stillness and favours continual transformation.

Written by Stéphane Bouquet, Six heures plus tard is an intimate stage performance for two performers that explores the fragile bonds between a man and a woman through poetic text, live-filmed images, spare lighting and pared-down stage presence. The piece treats silence as a shared, collective resource and recomposes itself according to each venue’s architecture and the state of the bodies, creating an unusual proximity and contemplative atmosphere.

Featuring a bold blend of synthesized textures and orchestral breadth, Synthony delivers a cinematic live music experience. The performance favors layered soundscapes, sweeping dynamics and rhythmic intensity, creating moments of quiet reflection and powerful catharsis. Staging emphasizes immersive audiovisuals and sculpted lighting to amplify emotional shifts, while the ensemble’s precision balances spontaneity and grand gestures. The result is a striking, atmospheric concert that foregrounds texture, momentum and communal energy.
Marc Perrenoud (piano) and Christoph Irniger (saxophone) present a duo that reimagines standards and weaves original compositions with elegance, freedom and improvisation. Drawing inspiration from Lennie Tristano, they transform familiar melodies into new lines, evidenced in pieces such as Dry Sensation and Déjà Vu, exploring delicate interplay, rhythmic subtlety and spontaneous dialogue. The programme, taken from their recent album New Lines, balances lyrical reflection with moments of joyful intensity and open-ended musical conversation.
A darkly comic solo play about obsession and domestic chaos. When Michel finds a rare record he has long sought, he prepares a perfect hour to listen — but family, neighbours and a drip that will wreck the disc steadily intrude. The piece skewers selfishness with sharp humour and precise staging, combining intimate realism and heightened farce to probe human smallness and the desperate desire for solitude.

Directed by Marika Dreistadt, Halte gives voice to eight young adults formerly in child protection, tracing the fragile passage from placement to adulthood. Non-professional performers — Zakaria Attoumani, Melanda Bertrand-Avebe, Celina Chraiet, Maël Do Nascimento, Alexis Limacher Abreu, Natalia Nguba Ekela, Clémentine Polly Care Pache and Léon Trolliet — blend testimony, courtroom scenes and moments of defiance. The staging mixes documentary realism and theatrical composition to reveal generation Z perspectives and intimate questions about authority, belonging and the future.
