The show

Students from the middle school circus track and the high school circus specialty share the Chapiteau stage to present their end-of-year creations, devised collectively in a cabaret format: acrobatics, balance, juggling, and aerial work, in distinctive worlds that blend technique, physical commitment, and artistic expression.

Friday, May 21, 2027 at the Chapiteau, during the Le Mans fait son Cirque festival: 6:30 PM for the Cirque au collège (Alain Fournier, Albert Camus, and Bérengère de Navarre middle schools), 8:30 PM for the Lycée cirque (Le Mans Sud high school). Runtime: about 1 hr, free with reservation.
