An artists collective founded by Samuel Hengebaert and Ronan Khalil in 2020, ActeSix brings together singers, instrumentalists, playwrights and directors to create original musical performances. Committed to developing new concert forms, ActeSix works with leading artists (Eléonore Pancrazi, Axelle Saint-Cirel, Edwin Crossley Mercer, Lucile Richardot, Maïlys de Villoutreys, Adam Laloum, Hélène Desaint, David Lescot, etc.) to imagine innovative, contemporary and subversive musical projects. Specializing in cross-disciplinary projects, ActeSix brings together different musical aesthetics and eras in a single show, based on current musical, historical and societal issues. ActeSix showcases its artists with tailor-made programs, defends forgotten repertoires, and encourages the emergence of little-heard music by making it visible to the eyes and ears of all. ActeSix develops its activities around 3 main axes:

1. Show production
2. A record label, Oktav Records
3. A festival, Les Moments Musicaux de Gerberoy

ActeSix is supported by the French Ministry of Culture, the DRAC Hauts de France, the Conseil Régional Hauts de France and the Conseil Départemental de l’Oise, and receives assistance from Spedidam, Adami, Sacem, CNM, Maison de la Musique Contemporaine and SPPF for the projects it develops. ActeSix is committed to ecological transition in partnership with the Arviva association, and has adopted an ecological charter.
