Four master impressionists reunite for a comic revue exploring Francophone identities and stereotypes. Yann Lambiel, Steeve Diamond, Fabian Le Castel and Laurent Chandemerle switch between sketches and songs, delivering rapid-fire character voices and musical parodies. The new show condenses more than a decade of collaboration into ninety minutes of sharp observation, playful rivalry and vocal virtuosity, using some 400 impressions to probe what unites these artists across Belgium, Switzerland, France and Québec.

FURTHER AFIELD

Directed by Jean‑François Sivadier, this blistering staging of Thomas Bernhard’s Maître dissects a privileged couple’s corrosive vanity and the ideological masks that sustain them. The production balances bitter comedy and dark drama, driven by a terse, language-centred aesthetic and an intense ensemble: Nicolas Bouchaud, Norah Krief, Frédéric Noaille, Juliette Bialek and Valérie de Champchesnel. The staging foregrounds verbal rhythm and theatrical momentum to unsettle and provoke reflection.

Nos voisins artificiels stages a tense, intimate theatrical exploration of human relationships in the age of technology. A focused ensemble navigates shifting boundaries between empathy and estrangement through precise physicality, fragmented dialogue and luminous stagecraft. The piece blends dark humour with moments of quiet vulnerability, relying on carefully designed lighting and minimalist sets to heighten emotional textures. Audience members are invited to witness ambiguous intimacy and the uncanny rhythms of contemporary coexistence.

16 – 26 September

Frank Martin’s opera La Tempête, after Shakespeare with a libretto by August Wilhelm von Schlegel and Johann Ludwig Tieck, returns in a new French-language production. Conductor Thierry Fischer leads the score while director Netia Jones stages a striking conception that makes electricity the source of Prospero’s powers. The cast brings poetic intensity to the island’s drama—Miranda, Caliban and the spirit Ariel—blending vocal nuance, atmospheric design and inventive staging to revisit exile, magic and reconciliation.

24 – 25 September

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.

15 September – 4 October

Chronicle of a fleeting liaison, this intimate theatrical piece examines the fragile architecture of desire and memory. Through concentrated scenes, the company maps the emotional aftershocks of a brief relationship, shifting between candid dialogue and charged silences. Lighting and sparse staging heighten moments of intimacy, while an attentive ensemble navigates tonal shifts from tenderness to unease. The production favors close observation and emotional clarity, inviting reflection on attachment and the traces left behind.
