Ebenezer Scrooge hates Christmas. He hates charity, he hates carol singers and more than anything he hates spending money. But this Yuletide is set to be like no other as he is taken on a magical journey through Christmas past, present and future. Along the way he meets a whole host of colourful characters who try to show him the error of his ways, but will Scrooge open his heart to the true spirit of Christmas before it’s too late? Join Simply Theatre as we bring Charles Dickens’ cherished festive tale to life in an enchanting stage adaptation full of joy, song, and magic – the perfect festive treat for all the family!

STOP TELLING WOMEN TO SMILE

Stop Telling Women to Smile is an art series by Tatyana Fazlalizadeh taking place at L’Usine from 13th-27th November 2017. Tatyana’s work addresses gender based street harassment by placing drawn portraits of women, composed with captions that speak directly to offenders, outside in public spaces. Tatyana Falalizadeh is an illustrator/painter based in Brooklyn, mostly known for her oil paintings. Having recently branched out into public art as a muralist, STWTS was born out of the idea that street art can be an impactful tool for tackling street harassment, a serious issue that affects women world wide. This project takes women’s voices, and faces, and puts them in the street – creating a bold presence for women in an environment where they are so often made to feel uncomfortable and unsafe.

 

 

 

 

WHERE: L’Usine, 4 place des Volontaires,1204 Genève.

WHEN: 13th – 27th November 2017.

COST: Free.

FREE CONCERT & TED-STYLE TALK

A free concert and fascinating TED-style talk at the Athénee with superstar interpreter of music for the deaf, Amber Galloway Gallego takes place on Monday 4th December 2017.

Amber, a pink-haired punk from Texas, has become a worldwide sensation overnight. A music interpreter for the deaf, performing onstage with some pretty impressive names in the world of music explains what is sound to music, does music need sound to be enjoyed, can one love a song you’ve never heard before? Be it Madonna or the Beatles, music has an irresistible energy that is enjoyed by all and is oft attributed to its sound. But there is a person who begs to differ, an amazing talent who knows how to translate audio’s captivating energy into non-sonic terms.

Come witness what will surely be the most entertaining concert of your life – whether you have perfect hearing or not. This is a 100% inclusive event with simultaneous interpretation in English, French and LSF (French Sign Language).

Tickets are free, but registration in advance is necessary.  Click here for further information.
