EXIT, anti-opera and inner revolution

Julia Robert

After FAME, her remarkable performance around celebrity, Julia Robert returns in a new creation where music plays a central role.

EXIT is intended to be a sensory dive where chaos meets calm. Through music, storytelling, and movement, this show breaks conventions to explore the quest for self in a world in crisis. Inspired by Buddhism, it invites us to confront our shadow zones to find rooted joy. On stage, Julia Robert and Alix Sandt blend objects, sounds, and gestures to create a vibrant experience, both poetic and raw. Oscillating between generous pop and performative experiments, this “anti-opera” takes us into an inner revolution, a path to reconciliation with oneself and the world.
