Don’t just like it, live it!

Sunday 25 October

As a closing highlight for Sylvia Sleigh and Refaire collection, the MAMCO stages a special day centred on short guided visits and a final encounter with the works before they come down. In just 30 minutes, the tours revisit Sleigh’s subversion of gender codes and the feminist questions raised by Refaire collection. The programme extends the reflection beyond the museum, with an evening of screenings devoted to Czech filmmaker Věra Chytilová and her singular cinematic language.

Sunday 25 October, 18:00

Les Fabulateurs present a long-form improvisation in which the audience steers the narrative. A story grows from spectators’ suggestions, then at intermission the crowd proposes twists; the chosen idea is woven into the second half, overturning characters and stakes. The company relies on quick wit, physical play and tight ensemble listening to reshape plotlines in the moment. The piece privileges surprise, communal invention and a lively, razor-bright comic energy that keeps the performance elastic and unpredictable.

In French.

2 – 6 November
