TJP Banner Image

Directed by one or more artists, CDNs, or national drama centers, are theaters for theatrical creation throughout France.
When Kaori Ito took over as director of the TJP in January 2023, she wanted the theater team to be surrounded by multidisciplinary artists and children of all ages. Embodying contemporary trans-disciplinary theater, from text to body, via puppetry, new magic, circus, clowning, street arts... they will accompany the implementation of the TJP project. 

You'll find them in the programming throughout the seasons, in the shows hosted, the TJP commissions, the Love Labos or Labo Rêves but also as part of the workshops and programming at Le Lieu commun.

ARTIST SERVICE

This season, the TJP is further affirming the involvement of artists at the heart of the theater's project by creating an artist department. As an integral part of the employee organization chart and team meetings, artists are involved on a daily basis in the reflection and implementation of the CDN's project.

LAB LOVES

Visit Lovelabos are short research periods during which the artists on the committee get together to discuss their concerns and share their working methods. These experiments and discoveries sometimes give rise to public presentations.


LE LABO RÊVES

Every season, the TJP commissions an artist to create a small-scale form to make a child's dream come true. 
This season we have entrusted this mission to Fatou Baactress and storyteller.
The creation of the Dream lab # 2 will be presented as part of Generation Seishun # 2

CREATIVE COLLECTIVES

At the TJP, children are the theater's partners.
Alongside the artists, they bring their invaluable insight into our society, helping to create new narratives to re-enchant the world. For the 24-25 season, children and teenagers are invited to take part in three collectives:
