ilotopie, open theater company

A NEW ADVENTURE THAT CONTINUES!

On January 1st, ILOTOPIE company becomes ACQUAFORTE company.

Same legal entity, same team, same repertoire, and new projects: it will be led by Fanny Baxter and Dominique Noel, previously co-directors with Bruno Schnebelin, who will be escaping at the end of 2025 with ilotopie’s name. Partners in this transition which has been in preparation for 3 years now, Sandrine Brunet continues her collaboration as administrator and Julien Bonelli as technical director.

With a motivated and solid team of around thirty artists, a unique theatrical form on water, and new projects overflowing from drawers, we will describe this transition with the beautiful oxymoron Manu coined for us: ACQUAFORTE CIE, a new adventure that continues!

Thank you to our president, Catherine Njine Djonkman, and to all the board members for their invaluable support.

A huge thank also to the entire ilotopie/AcquaForte cie team for their commitment and energy to this ongoing transition.

And may this beautiful ship sail on with its cargo of utopias!
