Since tg STAN was founded in 1989, its methods – working without a stage director, using the floor’s energy, acting in several languages – have rarely been equaled. Maxim Gorki’s Les Estivants, written in 1904, describes the leisurely everyday life of the Russian bourgeoisie, with their thoughts on love, loneliness or marriage.

Gurshad Shaheman, Dany Boudreault
Sur tes traces

Theatre

The piece takes us a road-trip in the form of a double portrait involving two destinies, namely those of Gurshad Shaheman born in Iran, and Dany Boudreault in Quebec. Authors, directors and performers, the two artists got to know each other in Europe. Here, each of them sets off in search of their respective pasts.

Marion Duval
Cécile

TheatrePerformance

Certain encounters are life-changing. This piece is about Marion Duval's encounter with Cécile Laporte, an activist and author to whom she has decided to dedicate a show. The resulting 'truth-performance' is an inspiring one and enables us to embrace the unbearable complexity of the world in a light-hearted way.

Jaha Koo
Haribo Kimchi

Theatre

Haribo Kimchi, a hybrid performance combining text, music, video and robotics, embraces South Korean cuisine as part of an investigation into cultural assimilation, together with its conflicts and paradoxes. It enables Jaha Koo to ask questions first raised in his Hamartia trilogy.
