For this 2026 edition, the agency unveils an unmissable program, a genuine collection of 32 shows and 4 theatres (L'Oriflamme, Girasole, 3S and Carreterie) that are already lining up as the summer’s marquee events.
Through bold, smart choices and an eclectic sensibility, Ace & Co pulls off the bet of marrying popular emotion with artistic rigor, placing its flagship productions and successes in several theaters in Avignon, the City of the Popes.

Ace & Co's experience unfolds through theatrical offerings that shake things up and captivate. The audience will be moved by a Victor Hugo dystopia in 93 (Theatre de l'Adresse) and a reimagining of Hernani (La Luna). The thirst for meaning and modernity will rush to La Factory for the political thriller, Meeting with Snowden, and the delicious satire of the War of the Emus, as well as to Girasole to savour the finely chiselled text of the Ordinary Circuit.

This exceptional journey continues with the grandeur of The Trojan War Won’t Happen (Théâtre des Brunes), the razor-sharp edge of Hubris (Roseau Teinturiers) and the youthful fervor of Heal The World (Chapelle des Antonins), not forgetting the delicacy of Reflet de l'Âme (Les 3 Raisins), the profound humanity of Douze (Maison de la Parole) and the emotion and reflection around Nos histoires (Théâtre Les Lucioles).

The Théâtre de l'Oriflamme, for its part, will offer the public the chance to discover the moving Crystal Clear (staged by Thierry Harcourt), the ingenuity behind Une histoire de la musique en 70 minutes, the power of Mécanique d'une Famille, the deft writing of Peines Perdues, and the psychological intensity of Monstre-moi.

Because theatre is also a celebration, the agency offers irresistible comedies and visually striking shows that hit with real impact. At Aux Corps Saints, cult humor takes center stage with Un Air de Famille and the irresistible L'Affaire Buckingham. Awe and pure performance seize audiences at L'Espace Alya with the visual poetry of Cube and the burlesque of Astuces en cuisine. The journey of the senses continues with the show-stopping mentalism of L'Effet Papillon (Théâtre 3S), the unifying laughter of Bouba (La Tâche d'Encre), the sensitivity of Pourquoi je n'ai jamais été heureux en amour! (Théâtre du Roi René).
Finally, the program shines with musical and poetic universes. Audiences will be carried away by the ardor of Sabor life is rhythm and the harmony d'Un jour ou l'autre at the Théâtre Notre Dame. La Scala will enchant with Tout le monde écrit des chansons, while the Verbe Fou will buzz to Déflagration Rimbaud.
Spectators will travel to the heart of pure emotion with Plus jamais Mozart (Fabrik'Théâtre), Tristan et Iseut (Nouvelle Étincelle), Les fables de la Fontaine (AJMI - La Manutention), Felicità (Théâtre Épiscène), the offbeat madness of Toute la mer du monde (Théâtre de l'Albatros).
With this selection,
Ace & Co doesn’t just take part in the
