Synopsis:
As the half-blood son of a Greek god, Percy Jackson has newly-discovered powers he can't control, a destiny he doesn't want, and a mythology textbook's worth of monsters on his trail. When Zeus's master lightning bolt is stolen and Percy becomes the prime suspect, he has to find and return the bolt to prove his innocence and prevent a war between the gods. But to succeed on his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the thief. He must travel to the Underworld and back; solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and come to terms with the father who abandoned him.

ECHO

ECHO (Every Cold-Hearted Oxygen) is a groundbreaking theatrical experiment from Iranian playwright Nassim Soleimanpour, known for his boundary-pushing works, and director Omar Elerian. Each performance features a different, unprepared performer, who steps onstage with no prior knowledge of the script and is guided only by Soleimanpour’s words transmitted live. The audience witnesses a story unfold in real-time, as the performer navigates the playwright’s deeply personal reflections on family, immigration and belonging.

COCK
Tickets - Adults: €20, €15, €8; Students: €8

Duration - 1h 40 (No interval)
After a highly successful run in 2024, Mike Bartlett’s Cock returns to the Théâtres de la Ville for another gripping encounter, dissecting love, identity, and the complexities of human desire with biting humour and raw emotion.
In the heart of London, John’s seemingly stable life with his boyfriend splinters when he suggests a break and unexpectedly falls for a woman. What follows is neither a simple love triangle nor a tale of sexual awakening, but rather an explosive examination of identity in a world that offers limitless possibilities yet traps us in the very labels we create. Torn between two lovers and struggling with opposing societal expectations, John’s crisis of choice spirals into a storm of passion, cowardice, and flaky commitment.
Director Anne Simon’s staging strips the theatrical experience to its essence. On Anouk Schiltz’s bare, tilting stage that physically embodies the shifting power dynamics and John’s indecisiveness, Bartlett’s razor-sharp, darkly comical dialogue flies like daggers in this emotional cockfight, culminating in a dramatic dinner party where personal, generational and societal expectations collide.
The Olivier Award-winning play crackles with wit and contemporary resonance and at a time when identity has never been more fluid, nor more fiercely contested, Bartlett’s masterpiece feels more vital than ever.
This production is part of a special programme in collaboration with Rosa Lëtzebuerg, to mark Luxembourg Pride, celebrating the LGBTQI+ community, diversity and love.
