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 23 shows, or 65 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 on puppeteers currently studying or who have recently graduated from leading schools in Germany, Belgium, Estonia, Norway, and Ukraine, who will present their final projects.

Temps d’M will also highlight puppet research conducted by artists and academics by hosting four professional gatherings and two study days for doctoral students from across Europe.

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

Programme available in June 2026
