Le Spot

Welcome under the big top. Here, nothing ever goes quite as planned. Drück is bursting with ideas, Din is ready to make his orchestra resonate, and Misette does everything she can to stop the whole thing from descending into chaos. Needless to say, it's no easy task. In this world, every problem seems to call for an even more unlikely solution. Situations follow one another, transform and constantly take unexpected turns. The three protagonists don't speak the same language, yet they understand each other perfectly. Better still, they invent their own rules of the game. Blending visual theatre, humour and boundless imagination, Porte à faux takes audiences of all ages on an adventure that is as absurd as it is ingenious. A show celebrating resourcefulness, togetherness and the joy of seeing the world from a different perspective.

Heading north. Far north. Where the ice seems endless, and where tales of exploration intertwine with the realities of the peoples who have inhabited the Arctic for generations. Siku takes the form of an illustrated lecture devoted to the Arctic and the Inuit. Well… in theory. Because as the presentation unfolds, the adventure gradually takes over. Between the desire to share knowledge, awkward moments, unexpected events and sometimes uncertain attempts at collaboration, the lecture slowly transforms into a true expedition. With humour, self-deprecation and endless curiosity, the show revisits the great moments of polar exploration while questioning the way we look at other cultures. Somewhere between clowning and reflection, Siku invites us to break the ice, embrace uncertainty and set off on a journey that is as funny as it is unexpected.

Rising Ape is a satirical show by Idriss Roca exploring our contemporary obsession with productivity. Being productive is often presented as a virtue: efficient, profitable, useful to society. Yet behind this promise lies another reality: constant pressure, isolation, and the violence of work on both body and mind. Through a playful circus lens, Idriss takes on this question, rarely explored in the circus world. Combining virtuosity and speed of execution within ingenious stage setups where everything happens in full view, Idriss pushes himself to keep up with relentless rhythms — until he leaves us dizzy. There is plenty of laughter, sometimes tinged with bitterness, in this sociological thriller that reveals the demands and expectations of the working world. With humour and sharp insight, Rising Ape explores a simple yet dizzying question: how far can we go to remain productive, and at what cost? Are there still spaces where we can transform this absurd race into something collective and joyful? On stage, circus becomes work again, and work becomes a true circus.

Normally, shows try to solve problems. This one prefers to collect them. Where the funk is my red nose!? begins with a disaster. A big problem. The kind of problem that could completely derail the entire show. But instead of trying to put things back in order, the protagonist chooses another path: making the situation even more complicated. On stage, a few objects are waiting: a strange circus ladder, a whip, a remote-controlled car. From that moment on, anything can happen. Surrounded by obstacles, unexpected events and a cascade of complications, the character turns every difficulty into a playground. He dances with problems, plays music for problems and eventually even celebrates problems. Blending clowning, circus and absurd humour, the show sets out to explore what lies at the very heart of clowning: the unique ability to transform failures into adventures and disasters into moments of grace. A joyful tribute to the art of never truly mastering the situation.
