Cultural offers theaters

Habiter, May 20-23, 2025
With Habiter, author and director Patricia Allio and actor Pierre Maillet set out to undo a normative, naturalistic conception of gender duality, in order to think about the mutable, plural nature of identity. A queer fantasy, this monologue in the form of a little raw theater incorporates as many seemingly whimsical philological digressions as documentary illustrations borrowed from recent news or art history. Through language games and onomatopoeic and anagrammic pirouettes, this eulogy of a nomadic inter and trans-species identity opens up to the political consideration of a world without borders.

Une ombre vorace, May 20-24, 2025
Jean Vidal is a mountain guide. His father, a famous mountaineer, disappeared while attempting to climb the Matterhorn solo thirty years ago. On a recent ascent, Jean Vidal is surprised by a storm when he enters a cave and discovers a frozen body. As he approached, surprised and horrified, he realized it was his father's body. Two years later, a film producer calls on a famous actor, Michel Roux, to embody Jean Vidal's odyssey on screen... In Une ombre vorace, by bringing these two protagonists to life, Argentine director Mariano Pensotti, with his acute sense of narrative, composes a "fictional documentary work", a story presented as real but whose imaginary part is almost total.

The new path (Sinnoi group), May 27, 2025
SINNOI, a motley and singular quartet, delivers with The New Path, a music unique in its genre, joyfully blurring the boundaries between styles, to the rhythm of deliciously hybrid compositions. The group presents itself as the summit meeting of Wonsool Lee, a bassist renowned on the Korean jazz scene; Bora Kim, whose vast musical range navigates between gyeonggi minyo (Korean folk song) and jeongga (traditional vocal genre); Godam, electronic musician and Nayeon Lee, wind instrument player.
