La Bâtie is part of FRAS, which since 2017 has brought together the two associations of professional theatres in French-speaking Switzerland: Union des Théâtres Romands (UTR) and the Pool de Théâtres Romands (Pool). FRAS’ fundamental aim is the vitality and development of the performing arts. In this spirit, it focuses mainly on the creation and dissemination of created works and participates in various regional, national and international cultural policies. It aims to preserve, promote and cultivate the unique diversity of our theatrical landscape and its cultural offer for all audiences and places art and culture at the centre of its efforts as an indispensable part of life.

The members of FRAS are professional organisations in French-speaking Switzerland that are active in the performing arts.
