Meetings & workshops

Under the Festival tent in front of the Célestins, Théâtre de Lyon, in the Festival venues and in partner venues, the Hors-scène events are an opportunity, following on from the shows, to open up a space for reflection, debate and criticism, and to exchange ideas with artists, intellectuals, academics, women and men of commitment, the driving forces behind the Festival.

New! The Festival invites you to the Big Top for meetings with artists, guests and the Festival team.

  • From Monday to Friday, at 5.50pm, Les rencontres Prétextes: an hour of readings and discussions.
  • Every day from 10.30pm, the Conversations nocturnes: informal get-togethers after the performances, a chance to discuss the day’s shows, look back on the highlights of Sens Interdits and meet the artists.
