Comeback

Performances

POCHE /GVE

Performed and choreographed by Eugénie Rebetez, COMEBACK is a solo exploration of artistic, female and maternal identity. On stage she shifts through extravagant costumes and a blend of choreography, song and gesture, crafting scenic images that are both poetic and comic. The work moves between introspection and humour, intertwining contemporary dance and stand-up rhythms to question the artist’s status. Co-produced by Tanzhaus Zürich, Casino Théâtre de Rolle, Théâtre Boulimie and LE POCHE, it offers an intimate, unsettling and hilarious journey.

Feu au lac !

Performances

Théâtre des Marionnettes

Feu au lac ! stages a trio of political puppet pieces that resurrect little-known episodes of Romandy’s social history.

The creative approach foregrounds material histories and the power of popular resistance.
