The show

Friday, March 26, 2027, at the Chapiteau: a meet-up with Jean-Baptiste André and Association W, followed by a tango introduction with Les Barjos du Tango.

An acrobatic dancer and tightrope-walking clown, Jean-Baptiste André approaches each creation as a space for experimentation, at the crossroads of disciplines. Since his first solo in 2004, he has reinvented the body in imbalance, all the way to transformation, to question the games of identity. He founded Association W in 2002 to carry his research and creation projects.

Duo evenings take place on Friday nights at the Chapiteau: you meet a company in residence that shares its work in progress, then move on to an activity to enjoy together (dance or games). Free admission, no reservation, light food on site.
