It is a compilation of human stories aimed at shedding light upon various individual journeys during a time of social distancing. COVID-19 has affected our communities differently and profoundly, but the play isn’t about the pandemic; it is about love, loss, connection and loneliness, fear, family, growth, self-discovery and all the things that bind us together.

What I Know About You
Théâtre des Grottes
6-7-8 October 2023

What I Know About You is a bilingual performance that delves into love and power in modern times. Through monologues and dialogues, experience the tension between these forces that both unite and divide. Against a backdrop of a polarized world, this play aims to highlight our shared humanity. These stories are a reminder that even in our closest moments, there is so much we don’t know about each other.

All proceeds generated by the play will be donated to AMIC and Camarada, two Geneva associations supporting with individuals with a refugee or migrant background. Follow us on social media to learn more about them!

Arts & Health : Round Table discussion

2020 and 2021 have been particularly difficult for the Arts. While political discourses have defined and redefined what is “essential” for our societies in order to promote individual and collective health, the Arts and the world of culture were deprioritized by governance structures. It is in this context that TFAC Geneva, in partnership with Uni Art (University of Geneva), organized a bilingual round table during which we were able to discuss the centrality of the Arts for our personal and collective well-being.
