About the Company

Cie Bleu en Haut Bleu en Bas is a Geneva based contemporary theatre company founded in 2015.
Its goal is to create experimental theatre shows that explore the human being, his moods and limits. It questions the audience on societal issues by involving and introducing it into a world where documentary, fiction and autobiographical narrative merge. The company hires and brings together multi-disciplinary teams (musicians, videographers, dancers, scenograhers and scientists) and in relief, the musicality of polyglottism where multiple languages and sounds can meet.
