About

Scenelis partners with private and public stakeholders to shape, deliver, and manage projects across live entertainment and the performing arts.

We work on a project basis: each one is unique, calling for bespoke methods, tools, and ways of working.

 
 

Live Shows

We support the setup and delivery of tours and live shows from budgeting and legal oversight to tour administration, tour accounting, cost control, and production management.

 
 
 
 
 

Tour Management

We handle the full coordination of your tours, including scheduling, travel and accommodation, team management, logistics, and local partner relations, so everything runs smoothly and artists can focus on what matters.

 
 
 
 
 

Venues & Cultural Spaces

Feasibility studies, owner’s representative services, and delegated operations. Each project is treated as a prototype, rooted in its local context and shaped by its own economic model.

 
 
 
 

Consulting & Feasibility

With years of experience, we support you in defining and structuring a project or organisation.

 

We thrive on complex and innovative projects. For us, value creation and strategic vision go hand in hand with team commitment, continuous skill development, sustainability, and a people-first approach.

 

  • Scenelis works with a wide range of French and international stakeholders in the live entertainment industry and regularly handles strategic, economic, and financial information, much of it highly confidential. We also operate within the framework of public tenders.

    All our contracts include clear confidentiality clauses, tailored to each project.

    Each new assignment is carefully assessed from an ethical standpoint. We pay close attention to potential conflicts of interest and to ensuring fair competition across the sector. Confidentiality and integrity are fundamental commitments that underpin the sustainability and growth of our activity.

  • We take a grounded, no-frills approach to environmental and social responsibility — focusing on concrete actions and thoughtful partner choices:

    • Energy: we source our electricity from a cooperative green provider (Enercoop).

    • Digital: our data and website are hosted by Infomaniak, one of Europe’s leading eco-conscious providers.

    • Transport: we prioritise low-impact travel options and offset all business travel emissions.

    • Giving back: each team member receives an annual company-funded budget to support a project of their choice.

    • People first: our main asset is our team. We provide strong health coverage, insurance, and employee savings plans.

  • We place particular importance on data security and protection.

    We rely on encrypted systems for data storage, sharing, and communication, built on SRP protocols, AES-256 and RSA-2048 standards, and a zero-knowledge architecture — among the most robust security frameworks available today.

    Data is secured through triple-redundant storage across two ISO 27001-certified data centres, compliant with the requirements of the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA).

    Our messaging tools also integrate the latest security technologies, including end-to-end encryption.

    All personal data processed by Scenelis is handled in full compliance with applicable data protection regulations.

  • We bring a high level of expertise to our work and just as importantly, we know where our limits are.

    That’s why we work closely with a trusted network of complementary specialists and experts in their fields, including building engineering, technical direction for live events, and marketing and promotion.

    These collaborations are carried out in full transparency, and always with our clients’ knowledge and approval.

Our Team

 

  • Xavier began his career working for 15 years alongside Olivier Poubelle at Astérios Productions, before going on tour with numerous artists including Mylène Farmer, -M-, Indochine, Alain Bashung, Vanessa Paradis, Marie-Claude Pietragalla, and Calogero.

    In 2011, he took part in the launch of the live entertainment division of the Lagardère group. Alongside producing shows (Florent Pagny, musical productions, etc.), he was involved in the acquisition of venues such as Folies Bergère and Casino de Paris, and contributed to winning the tender for the design and construction of the Bordeaux Arena (11,000 capacity).

    In 2015, he joined Fimalac Entertainment, where he led the “Venues” division, overseeing the operations of five Zénith arenas and the programming of 14 venues ranging from 1,500 to 56,000 seats.

    Drawing on this dual expertise in event production and venue development and management, Xavier Réchain founded SCENELIS in 2018, building on over 30 years of experience in the industry.

 
 

  • Rebecca holds a Master’s degree in Cultural Project Management and began her career at Lagardère Live Entertainment, where she worked on the production of several musical shows at the Folies Bergère.

    She then joined Les Deux Belges Productions, first as Production Coordinator and later as Production Manager, working across comedy, classical music, and musical theatre.

    She gained her first touring experience as an Assistant Tour Manager on Ibrahim Maalouf’s international tour, before moving into tour accounting and budget management for Gims.

    She went on to lead production and tour management for Woodkid during the post-COVID touring resumption, and later became Tour Manager for Stromae’s Multitude tour across Europe and the United States. She subsequently toured with Darkside across Europe and with Polo & Pan across Europe, North America, and Latin America.

    Fully bilingual in French and English, she is comfortable working in international environments. Her background gives her a strong overall vision of projects, combined with a rigorous and hands-on approach to tour coordination.
