Le Fil Rouge Théâtre – France
“Un Opéra de papier”
What does it mean to live? To come into the world? Where are we before we are born? Where do we go when we die? Meeting people at both ends of life. Young age and old age. Towards the beginning and towards the end. Mixing the smooth and the crumpled in a Paper Opera.

Une Tribu Collectif – Belgique
“La Brèche”
When her grandmother dies, a little girl decides that she will never be put in a box. She will grow up and live her life. At full speed. As a biologist, she studies the behaviour of certain animals. Until the day she makes a discovery about herself, a discovery that will turn her upside down. The Breach is a fable about our relationship with finitude. To our finitude. An invitation.

La Mâchoire 36 – France
“Gribouillis”
Through the question “where do ideas come from?”, Gribouillis pays tribute to drawing, imagination, chance and formlessness. A man and a woman think, and their thoughts take the form of a scribble. They will have to untangle this bag of knots, pull out the threads of their thoughts, to see more clearly.

Turak – France
“Incertain Monsieur Tokbar”
This uncertain Mr. Tokbar has a habit of making something new out of something old. He recycles, he recomposes, he is adept at invented folklore, at imaginary memory.
Création October 2018
- 2018-2019
Laura Fedida – France
“Psaumes pour Abdel”
Four performers including a guitarist. A telephone booth in the middle of a burnt landscape. Gendarmes’ glove puppets. It’s a small apocalyptic machine, rebellious and sad. To the music of Joe Dassin, in the middle of a rave party.
