Électro-Odyssée : Deena Abdelwahed
Deena Abdelwahed reinvents electronic performance by drawing on intuitive improvisation, a key element in Arab musical traditions. She breaks away from the conventional links between musicians’ gestures and the sounds of traditional instruments, transforming the relationship between what is seen and what is heard. The result is a fresh and immersive musical experience

Culture Relax session: November 8, 8pm
The Culture Relax program offers access to cultural venues in a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere, making it easier for people whose disabilities (autism, multiple disabilities, intellectual or psychiatric disabilities, Alzheimer's, etc.) may sometimes lead to atypical behaviors during performances. During specific sessions, traditional theater rules are relaxed, allowing these audiences to enter and leave during the show, express their appreciation vocally, and more. Everyone, whether affected by a disability or not, can freely experience their emotions and enjoy the performance together without fear.
