Scènes De La Vie Conjugale (avec Romane Bohringer)

Scènes de la vie conjugale at Radiant-Bellevue

At Radiant-Bellevue, we are proud to welcome Scènes de la vie conjugale, carried by the luminous presence of Romane Bohringer. Our stage was designed for encounters exactly like this one: intimate, finely tuned, and emotionally resonant. The piece unfolds in a series of stark, eloquent tableaux that trace a couple’s evolving bond across years, separations, reconciliations, and the quiet revolutions of everyday love. In our hall, the proximity between artists and audience heightens the precision of each silence and the weight of every confession; you can feel the pulse of the words travel from the actors’ breath to the last row. For this engagement, our technical team supports a refined scenography—light, space, and sound calibrated to reveal the tremors beneath the dialogue—so that Bohringer’s voice, gaze, and physicality guide spectators through the play’s tender cruelty and tender mercy alike. Radiant-Bellevue is delighted to host a work that lets theatre do what it does best: make the private visible, and the visible profound.

Romane Bohringer’s artistic momentum

Romane Bohringer arrives with the kind of artistic momentum that only a multifaceted career can sustain. Celebrated since Les Nuits fauves, she has continually embraced projects that test the limits of intimacy on stage and on screen. In recent years, her adventure L’Amour flou—first a film, then a series—has shown her appetite for inventing forms that blur fiction and life, observation and confession. That appetite is palpable here: in Scènes de la vie conjugale, she sculpts the tiniest shifts of affection and estrangement with a precision that audiences at Radiant-Bellevue love to witness up close. Beyond this production, Bohringer continues to develop new collaborations in theatre and audiovisual work, moving between auteur cinema and projects with a broader public resonance. We follow that trajectory with admiration because it mirrors our own mission: to present artists who renew their language with each encounter, and to offer them a stage where nuance is not only possible but celebrated.

From our vantage point at Radiant-Bellevue, Scènes de la vie conjugale is more than a revival of a modern classic: it is a living conversation between an artist at the height of her powers and an audience eager for truth without ornament. The dramaturgy thrives on contrast—sharp humor against raw vulnerability, ritual against rupture—and Bohringer calibrates those contrasts with alive, mercurial intelligence. The staging’s economy invites the audience to do an active kind of seeing: to register how a hand hesitates before reaching, how a sentence rescues or ruins a moment, how a room grows larger or smaller with a single admission. In our auditorium, that attentiveness becomes communal; you can feel breaths held and released in unison. As with her work around L’Amour flou, Bohringer’s presence bridges the gap between actor and witness, nudging us to consider our own private negotiations of tenderness, pride, and forgiveness. We are honored to host this encounter and to offer the technical finesse, acoustic warmth, and care that allow such delicate theatre to resonate fully.
