The Xanadous have always had a passion for public transportation. From their stripteases in the Paris metro to *Les Brigades de déraillement public*, co-written by Louis Zampa and Lucie Vérot Solaure. This summer, in Chalon, they invite you to share in some of their wild antics on public transportation. Eco-friendly funeral homes, travelers swapping lives for the duration of a stop, crooner duos announcing the stops, buses turned into restaurants, express romantic comedies… Some scenes are drawn from the Brigades’ scripts, written through the Auteurs en tandem program (Artcena - 2023-2024). Others were created especially for the occasion, like these new social housing units set up in buses... Some events will be announced. Others will pop up unexpectedly, so keep your eyes peeled and hop on the bus—you never know…
The Xanadou have always had a thing for public transportation. From stripteases on the Paris metro to *Brigades de déraillement public*, co-written by Louis Zampa and Lucie Vérot Solaure, chaos has never been far behind. This summer in Chalon, they’re bringing some of that madness to your local buses. Eco-friendly funeral homes, passengers swapping lives between two stops, crooner duos announcing the next station, buses turned into restaurants, express rom-coms… Some scenes come from the Brigades texts, written through the Auteur en tandem program (Artcena – 2023–2024). Others were created especially for the occasion—like these brand-new social housing units, conveniently located inside a bus. Some shows will be announced. Others will catch you off guard, so keep your eyes open and hop on the bus—you never know…
