Edition 2025 — Théâtre sur l'Herbe
The 18th edition of the Théâtre sur l'Herbe festival took place from June 27 to 29, 2025, celebrating the 40th anniversary of Théâtre de la Tête Noire. Organized around the theme of the circle — circles of water, play, tribe, sharing, and children's rounds — this edition offered a rich program combining circus, theater, dance, music, artistic installations, and ecological games, in the Parc du Château de l'Étang in Saran.
18th Edition — 40 Years of Théâtre de la Tête Noire
The 2025 edition of Théâtre sur l'Herbe resonated as a declaration of love for an audience that loves popular, free, and demanding theater, on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of Théâtre de la Tête Noire. The theme of the circle permeated the entire program: circles of water, play, tribe, sharing, and children's rounds.
Circus and Theater
The Famille Morallès presented Qui Sommes-Nous JE ? and Carmen n'est pas un opéra. Joan Català offered Idiòfona and Pelat. The Cirque Inextremiste made an impression with Damoclès.
Young Audience
The shows Petits Pas Perdus and Jacarandá enchanted the younger ones, in the family spirit that characterizes the festival.
Installations and Games
Partitions Bambous offered aerial acrobatics, while Katakrak Andromina invited the public to ecological games. Mission Bamboucles erected bamboo structures, and La Cabane et la Météorite created a space for dreaming.
Music and Fanfares
Da Cruz One Man Band, Les Fanflures, and La Fanfare des 3 Messieurs set the rhythm of the days with their festive sounds.
Saturday Evenings
Saturday evening featured a sequence of three notable performances: La Tragédie du Dossard 512 at 7 PM, Sur le Dancefloor at 9:15 PM, and La Fête Étrange at 11:15 PM.
