Our illuminated and magical carriage pulled by a colossal horse is coming your way. Welcome to the ball!
Meet our wonderful stiltwalkers, our lamplighters, our lampshade ladies fluttering around and our two evanescent lovers. Portraits that have stayed still for too long, escaping from Renoir’s, Degas’ and Mucha’s paintings. The characters introduce the audience to a whimsical world. Those travelers from the past wake up to dance in your streets!
In this world playing the game of appearances is essential. Wearing a mask is indispensable in the social game. A secret is hidden between characters and spectators. It’s a unsettling invitation. They come and escape the time of the show. Illuminated, they cut the night… The acrobats take us to this modern and dazzling century.
Ladies and gentlemen, before your very eyes, please discover the choreographed splendor, the exploding, affectionate and unexpected movement, and a delusional and unique experience… You’ll see! You’ll dance along.
This show slithers and flies by, intangible and unreal. In a wonderful madness, a ball will be taking place tonight.
