SHOWS
FOR ADULTS
"Stories are not for putting children to sleep, but for awakening adults."
These shows offer adults authentic pearls of wisdom from different cultures around the world through stories of life experiences or philosophical tales whose deeper meaning can only be understood as we grow older.
Traditional stories are full of symbols that can be interpreted on different levels, which is why we can listen to the same story several times at different ages and understand something different each time. For adults, listening to a story is a unique opportunity to step out of time, let themselves be carried away into a dreamlike universe and take the hand of the child they once were.

SEVEN ARROWS, TALES OF THE AMERICAN INDIANS
A show featuring Indian tales. A journey around the Medicine Wheel, symbol of traditional Amerindian wisdom. Between the great plains, the Rocky Mountains, the Amazon rainforest and the Arctic ice, the tribe of men meets the tribe of women for the first time. The young Indian goes out hunting and discovers something that will change his life. The ice floe witnesses a farewell and, at the bottom of an abyss, man creates himself.

MIGRANT HEARTS
In this show, written by Pierre Rosat based on real testimonies and directed by Patrick Mohr, Casilda lends her gaze and her voice, full of humanity, to recount the fate of some of these women who, after arriving in exile are now well integrated into Geneva.
In Migratory Hearts, Casilda shares with us radiant stories inspired by the most universal aspects of the human condition: the desire for a better life, fear, love, resilience, vitality, hope, chance meetings, misery and joy. Given the current tragic situation of migrants, Corazones migratorios is a sensitive and warm ode to the courage of these not-quite-ordinary migrant heroines, a positive hymn to solidarity and tolerance.
