Sublime, subtle, subversive, subjective, substantial, sub-cultural: Les SUBS is many things, but also unique. The full array of contemporary stage genres – theatre, dance, music, circus, visual and digital arts… - have a home at Les SUBS, whose speciality is aesthetic adventures that shake up our spectators’ habits. Here, there are no frontiers between visual and performing arts, between stage and auditorium, inside and outside, highbrow and popular, here and elsewhere. Open to the city and the world, Les SUBS helps to both reveal local talents and establish international figures; it hosts residencies and events and promotes new technology, accessibility to the greatest number, a strong identity and a partnership-based approach. Operating at the intersection of heritage, new work, amateur practices and digital research, Les SUBS gives pride of place to the values of hospitality, diversity and innovation.
Creating an appetite for new work, taking risks, cultivating our differences, affirming our freedom and fully embracing the uncertainty of what is new: on all of this depends our ability to project ourselves into a future that must be co-built in an open-minded, welcoming and cheerful way. This is why tomorrow’s artists already reside at Les SUBS!
