Théâtre de Vidy
Lausanne
- The Vidy-Lausanne Theatre, a center for Francophone theater creation, is located in the heart of French-speaking Switzerland. Taking advantage of the privileged position of the Vaud capital at the crossroads of Europe, it serves as a space open to the world, where Latin and Germanic theater and artistic cultures engage in dialogue.
- Its building, designed by Zurich artist and architect Max Bill – trained at the Bauhaus – for the “Educate and Create” section of the 1964 Swiss National Exhibition in Lausanne, houses four performance spaces and a bar-lounge overlooking the Vidy beach, with views of Lake Geneva and the Alps.

Inspired by Baron Perché by Italo Calvino
Young Cosima has rebelled against her parents and has perched in a tree near Vidy. She has no intention of coming down again, especially as her life in the trees leads her to make incredible encounters: up in the canopy, Cosima discovers philosophical meditation, the idea of political activism and the joys of love! But Perchée is also a group of friends sharing their reading of Baron Perché by the Italian author Italo Calvino. The book takes them on a thrilling rediscovery of life, nature and human society and its strange foibles, which they share with the children sitting around the tree.
