  • Compagnie Les Hommes De Mains

The show

A combined ticket for two 30-minute short works at the Chapiteau, part of the December highlight event “Insolites!” devoted to unusual apparatus.

Immobiles, by the company Les Hommes De Mains: on a moving walkway, two acrobats reinvent hand-to-hand. Gravity wavers, time stretches, and the bodies learn to dance with instability; as the stage slides beneath them, they defy balance.

Passages, by the company Ar: in a narrow glass box with transparent walls, a woman explores her limits. Her body contorts, climbs, slides, falls, and transforms to build an almost unthinkable vertical journey. A captivating experience that plays with humor, constraints, and gravity.
