Yacine Belhousse returns with « 2026 », a new show that blends absurd humour and poetry, drawn from an eventful year. Known to wide audiences through the Jamel Comedy Club, Bref and Golden Moustache, he offers an elegant, offbeat perspective on everyday life, weaving Anglo‑Saxon references and unexpected digressions. The staging balances stand-up rhythm with theatrical, lyrical moments, inviting laughter and reflection across sharp timing and gentle absurdity.

Assembled at the initiative of Vincent Ruiz and Nicolas Masson, this newly formed quartet offers an open, democratic interpretation of recent compositions by Nicolas Masson. The project blends composed material and responsive improvisation, allowing structures to emerge and be shaped in real time. The ensemble—Nicolas Masson (saxophone), Théo Duboule (guitar), Vincent Ruiz (double bass) and Nathan Vandenbulcke (drums)—explores textural interplay, collective listening and the elasticity of form in contemporary chamber jazz.
Two short plays by Anton Chekhov staged by Tibor Ockenfels and Flavie Tapparel, presented as compact dramatic machines where romantic comedy masks escalating confrontations between desire, affection and material interest. Performances rely on precise physical timing, terse exchanges and a lean, playful design to reveal the simmering violence behind courtship rituals. The three actors — Estelle Bridet, Matteo Prandi and Raphaël Vachoux — inhabit heightened character types that shift between farce and darker comic truth, creating a sharply observed, kinetic evening.

Gli Angeli Genève performs a programme of sacred cantatas and motets by Johann Sebastian Bach and Andreas Hammerschmidt. The concert features Bach’s BWV 66, BWV 154 and BWV 168 alongside Hammerschmidt motets, delivered by choir and soloists with period-informed interpretation and transparent instrumental support. The evening explores spiritual contrasts—intense emotion, luminous choruses and expressive arias—presented with refined phrasing and historical sensitivity.
Focus Jeune Création brings together a new generation of Romand artists over two weeks, presenting five bold and hybrid performances that blur theatre, performance and live art. The program explores emergent writing and stage practices— from plateau-based text to pieces rooted in the real—offering layered, often indisciplinary approaches that question formats and invent languages for a transforming world. Accompanying meetings and discussions extend the works and open insight into creative processes.
