Camisards : A Cry for Freedom Against Normalization
Conference: A meeting with the illustrator Eloi Valat and Chrystel Bernat, professor of Modern History at the Protestant Institute of Theology, on the occasion of the release of the first volume of their trilogy on the Troubles des Sevennes, “Camisards, 1702, The Death of the Abbe du Chaila”.
Royal Philharmonic Orchestra of Liège
Concert: A program contrasting folkloric splendor with romantic melancholy. Emmanuel Pahud, a flute magician, will tackle the virtuosic piece, Khatchatourian’s Concerto for Flute, characterized by Armenian colors. Newly appointed at the helm of the Liége orchestra, Niçois Lionel Bringuier deploys his fluid gesture that sculpts every nuance of the Concerto before delving into the turbulent ocean of Tchaïkovsky’s Pathétique, the ultimate masterpiece.
Cabaret Cornu : “The End of the World”
Show: A queer and feminist cabaret presented by Mido and Le Baron Perdu. Despite Baron’s warnings, Mido played one too many times with the time-traveling machine. Now, we find ourselves truly plunged into the post-apocalyptic era, still without a response from Mido, but perhaps this isn’t the right time anyway.
Preview: “Première ligne”
Cinema: In the presence of the film team. A dramatic comedy (1h26, VOST) by Merzak Allouache, with Nabil Asli, Fatiha Ouared, Idir Benaibouche. It’s summer! The Bouderbala family arrives at the beach to settle by the water, in the “first row”. Between family secrets and neighborhood wars, the stay quickly turns into a nightmare.
Védas en Rire : Frédéric Ferrer
Festival: In 2008, NASA released 90 yellow plastic ducks into a glacier in Greenland to measure the speed of climate change. Expected a few weeks later in Disco Bay, the ducks never reappeared. Where have the ducks gone?
GENERATIONS – Battle of Portraits
Dance: Two performers on a stage question the context of their encounter, the nature of their relationship, highlighting each one’s differences. Starting with the portrait: knowledge, experiences, and majesty in Jean, who is over 70; ardor, innocence, and explosion in Hugues, who is not yet thirty.
Cuarteto Tafi
Concert: An Argentine voice that is vibrant, firm, soft, and intoxicating, singing, whispering, and protesting. A Greek bouzouki and a bombo leguero, a flamenco guitar and an oud, percussion, modern sound programming. Poetry, tenderness, strength, in Spanish and joy.
