Temps d'M

Temps d’M is a global inter-festival event that takes place in September every other year.

Over five days, Temps d’M will offer nearly 25 shows, or around 70 performances, in theaters and public spaces, accompanied by workshops, professional meetings, and social events open to all audiences.

This edition will highlight artistic experimentation, particularly through “Hybridities,” which will explore the dialogue between puppetry and other disciplines. It will also give pride of place to young creators, drawing on the presence in Charleville-Mézières of the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts de la Marionnette – Margareta Niculescu, as well as recently graduated puppeteers from leading schools in Germany, Norway, Ukraine, and Belgium, who will present their shows.

Finally, “Temps d’M” will devote time to promoting research, with the presentation of projects, notably “Auteurs en Tandem,” a program of cross-writing that brings together the imagination of an author and that of a puppeteer.

See you from September 16 to 20, 2026, in Charleville-Mézières.

Programme available in June 2026
