Program

Closing Party
(arrivederci e grazie)

Alessandro Bernardeschi
Mauro Paccagnella

Alessandro and Mauro imprint the gestures and deploy their trajectories, from Marianne Faithfull to Béjart’s Boléro, the Italian leaden years to Pier Paolo Pasolini, from feathers to wigs. Not to mention the tutus.

Une tentative presque comme une autre

Clément & Guillaume Papachristou

Weaving a thread that binds them, and connects Brussels and Marseille where they live respectively, Clément and Guillaume Papachristou make their twinship a territory to be discovered.

Genesis

Hakim Bouacha

Faced with explosions of homophobia, Hakim Bouacha plays with documented autofiction to better combine individual and collective scale - auscultation of a society depicted as viscerally homophobic.

Depois do silêncio
Après le silence

Christiane Jatahy

Far from offering only disturbing fiction, Christiane Jatahy presents a splendid cinematographic and documentary exploration in the region of Chapada Diamantina.

Je crois que dehors c’est le printemps

Gaia Saitta
Giorgio Barberio Corsetti

In a human approach, Gaia Saitta, invites spectators to accompany her,  giving substance to the story, to Irina’s emotions.

Forêts paisibles
Vaudeville mythologique

Martine Wijckaert

In this ferocious fable, between vaudeville and mythology, the nuclear family is the empire broken taboos and of absolute hypocrisy.

Si j’étais moi

Mathias Simons

Being both actors and narrators, the three characters fill this grating comedy with visions and archetypes.

Giselle…

François Gremaud

In a stripped-down aesthetic, Samantha van Wissen comments, paraphrases, documents and dances Giselle.

Mawda, ça veut dire tendresse

Marie-Aurore D’Awans
Pauline Beugnies

Marie-Aurore D’Awans & Pauline Beugnies inscribe the documented theatre in a larger totality than the simple reconstruction of the facts.

Sabordage

Collectif Mensuel

Sabordage illuminates, with a certain humour, the human mechanisms that push societies to let themselves be blinded by the mirages of growth and overconsumption.

Dive in

Cie Soif Totale

Dive in is a story of the body, of performance, a mixture of processes from the darkest to the brightest.

La Mouette

Anton Tchekhov
Cyril Teste

In a workshop or film studio setting, Cyril Teste offers a sophisticated, hybrid scenic device, which poetically mixes live performance with sequence shots projected on video.

Histoire(s) du théâtre III

Angélica Liddell

At work in Liebestod is a ceaseless search for tragic beauty, an attempt to communicate directly with the sacred.

Boudoir

Steven Cohen

In this new creation, Steven Cohen welcomes us in his Boudoir, a domestic place where the links between intimacy and politics are reconfigured.

“put your heart under your feet…and walk!”

Steven Cohen

The moving requiem offered by Steven Cohen ventures into the realm of mourning, offering himself to his lost love as a living burial.

Room With A View

Rone x (LA)HORDE Ballet national de Marseille

In a post-apocalyptic setting the pulsation seizes the dancers to do justice to the anger, to the revolt.

L’après-midi d’un foehn
Version 1

Phia Ménard / Cie Non Nova

L’après-midi d’un foehn Version 1 invites us to wonder, before what is impalpable and brilliantly tamed in a performance/installation, as if it were pieces of matter:

Les Enfants terribles

Jean Cocteau
Philip Glass
Phia Ménard

This timeless tableau of adolescence, as poisonous as it is dreamy, with saturated romanticism in a form of flamboyant camera, still dazzles.

Sylvia

Fabrice Murgia
An Pierlé Quartet

A sensitive portrait enriched by the sublime melancholy of the musical compositions of Belgian author/composer An Pierlé.

Rage

Emilienne Flagothier

Inspired by real events, Emilienne Flagothier rewrites these daily stories of violence against women. The artist experiments by creating a space where the relationships are reversed.

Should I stay or should I stay

Simon Thomas

An empty space, a door. Four characters. They seem stuck, without really knowing why, or how to escape.

Brefs entretiens avec des hommes hideux – 22 types de solitude

David Foster Wallace
Yana Ross

It is a state of current society, a gauge of testicle theatre, grotesque, with a question. How far can hideous men go in the process of dehumanization in the intimate sphere?

La gioia

Pippo Delbono

Pippo Delbono met Bobò in 1995 at the psychiatric hospital of Aversa. A born actor who could neither read, write nor speak, and who has since died.

WEG

Ayelen Parolin

WEG works on the progressive disruption of the choreographic phrase of each dancer resulting in a cacophony of uninhibited gestures and attitudes.

Je crois que dehors c’est le printemps

Giorgio Barberio Corsetti

In a human approach, Gaia Saitta, invites spectators to accompany her,  giving substance to the story, to Irina’s emotions.

Angela (a strange loop)

Susanne Kennedy
Markus Selg

Angela (a strange loop) takes us on a deep dive into the phenomenological question of identity and consciousness.

J’ai une épée

Léa Drouet

Léa Drouet gradually conjures up without ever showing it directly this absent point of the child who insists while escaping.

Création 2023

Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker / Rosas

In this new creation, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker’s exploration of the relationship between music and dance shifts back towards the genre of pop. Pop music invites us to dance.
