KO KO MO is an explosive musical duo, two stage animals: Warren (guitar-vocals) and Kevin ‘K20’ (drums – backing vocals). The two have a true zest for life. Still following in the footsteps of their heroes from the ’70s, they delicately surpass their influences to offer us classic rock with an undeniably contemporary vintage touch.

Family, sexuality, new technologies… In his new show, Pablo Mira analyzes how our society has changed over the past thirty years. While abandoning his caricature of a reactionary editorial writer, he retains his wit and satirical tone. This is the tormentor’s second one-man show, following the hilarious “Pablo Mira dit des choses contre de l’argent,” which debuted in 2017 and sold out.

Hugo is a musician, a charmer, and a born free spirit. Alice is an actress, an idealist, and a born romantic. Exactly one year after their sudden breakup, Alice shows up at Hugo’s home in the middle of the night. What remains of their love, the one she thought would last forever?
The former lovers do their best to hide their true feelings. They lie, obfuscate, and procrastinate… Then, exactly one year after that night, another visitor. This time, it’s Hugo knocking on Alice’s door… “Ce qui reste d’un amour” (“What remains of love”) is a play about the power, mystery, and contradictions of love.

From Friday, March 29, to Sunday, September 29, 2024, at the Nouveau Musée National de Monaco – Villa Sauber
The new exhibition at Villa Sauber pays tribute to Pier Paolo Pasolini, perhaps the last European intellectual to achieve worldwide fame. Fifty years after his death, his influence is still felt in the various fields in which he worked: he is read, commented on, adapted, and inspires contemporary creative artists. Although he preferred to call himself a writer, it was his films that brought him public attention. The exhibition explores his inspirations and his legacy.
