La Comédie de Genève and Château Rouge-Annemasse team up for an exceptional and ambitious two-day artistic event in nine stations as well as on the routes that connect them. Thanks to a multidisciplinary programme, this cross-border cooperative effort will enable you to playfully discover the route of the Leman Express train and the speed with which it will connect its newly-designed stations.
On the Swiss side, Lancy-Pont-Rouge, Genève-Champel, Eaux-Vives and Chêne-Bourg stations will be under the spotlight, featuring artists and performances in the public space, while La Roche-sur-Foron, Thonon-les-bains, Bonneville, Bellegarde and Annemasse stations in France will guarantee you an extraordinary welcome!
Whatever your age, come and enjoy the party, discover the Leman Express train as well as artistic events showcasing music, dance, theatre, virtual reality, circus events, installations, performances, games, moments of conviviality and numerous participatory activities!

The exhibition is dedicated to the works of the most prolific member of the “Boissonnas dynasty”, Fred Boissonnas (1858 – 1946). It sheds light on a whole aspect of his career that is both underappreciated and crucial: his journeys on the Mediterranean Sea, which he spent the first three decades of the 20th century roaming in search of light, of the Great Greece and free Egypt, of Homeric settings and Biblical landscapes.
Most of his photographs, presented here for the first time, are part of bequeathed collections now owned by the Bibliothèque de Genève. Both poetic and mesmerising, this exhibition also attempts to provide insight into the ambivalent and passionate relationship between Europe and the Mediterranean.
