Geneva and Switzerland in the news

I just added a new feature in the right column of this blog: Geneva and Lausanne in the news. It displays automatically a few lines from relevant articles, that you can then read by clicking on the link. As most of them are in French, it is a great opportunity to improve your language skills if you are a new expat!

Theatre in English in and around Geneva

One of the wonderful things in Geneva is that there are so many opportunities for expats that you keep discovering new ones.

I just discovered the website of Theatre in English. Here is how the administrators present it:

"This is your guide to shows by the two English-speaking amateur theatre groups in Geneva, Switzerland/Voici votre guide des spectacles donnés par et pour les anglophones dans la région de Genève - pièces de théâtre, comédies musicales, operettes.

The Geneva English Drama Society (GEDS) provides a diverse theatre programme with a wide variety of styles and periods. A typical season includes 3-4 full stage productions and 20 fortnightly staged playreadings, plus workshops and social events.

The Geneva Amateur Operatic Society(GAOS) offers you a traditional British pantomime each winter, its Spring production is an operetta or musical comedy, while the type of show produced in the Summer varies from year to year. In the Autumn The Really Youthful Group performs a musical show entirely organised by its young members."
