Luc Amoros - Page blanche
Strasbourg (67) – Creation on 2009-2010 Monumental performance – 60 mn – accessible to all
Imagine a big scaffolding erected in place Allende, monumental object integrated into the architecture of la Cité du Viaduc, like an immense blank page; painted or carved images, sometimes even painted slowly appear on the canvas, in front of the crowd. Page Blanche is a collective fresco, an overflowing comic strip, composed and performed by a half-dozen of young European painters-singers.
« To counteract the torrent of sterile images that no longer tell us about the world but try to sell it to us Page Blanche is a proposal made to passers-by to get ownership of their space again by reinventing stories to enchant it again, stories to widen our horizon...»

Besançon (25) – Creation in 2010 Ardent Tango – 50 mn – accessible to all
You get there and discover a mysterious crime scene: a young woman is dead. You rewind the last 24 hours of her life to understand what had happened. You then dive into her universe, a cabaret where the boss, a double bass player, a singer mix... all these people love one another and tear each other apart, yet that day, something will happen that will change it all...
The 30's, bad boy, femme fatale, black market, jazz on the phono, bank stick up... all the ingredients of a detective novel are gathered in this show, mixing Argentinian Tango, music and Fire Arts.
Having bewitched us with their previous creation A Fuego Lento at le Mai des Arts, the company presents here its new creation supported by the National Centre for Street Arts le Fourneau.

Bébert et Lolo (Les Cousins) - Complètement à la rue
Pantin (93) – Creation in 2010 Street Theatre for a clumsy juggler and a mischievous dog – 35 mn – accessible to all
After almost twenty years of work in trio with Les Cousins, Laurent Serre starts his solo artistic adventure. No quite solo, as he is accompanied here with Bébert... his dog! Bébert is not a « performing » animal, but a full partner, involved in the writing of the show.
Complètement à la rue is the story of a man and his dog performing a show. The man is nervous. The dog is playful. Bébert loves people. And loves playing, always playing....Then obviously, Bébert and Lolo form a funny tandem...
After a first public experiment in Ste Sève, as part of le Mai des Arts, we meet this colorful duet again, the result of a surprising complicity between the man and the animal.

Une de Plus - Juré-craché
Plouguerneau (29) – Creation in 2010 Street theatre and puppets – 50 mn
Work in progress...
When three brothers and a sister open the book of their youth and invite us to dive into the net of a dark nostalgia, and of a memory of shared joys... it results in a sensitive show, in the form of a constant coming–and-going between adulthood and childhood, where anyone can make theirs and tell their own story...
After its previous creation Trois, performed at le FAR in 2006 and 2009, the Brittany-based company presents its brand-new show at le FAR, both beautiful and disturbing.

Claire Ducreux - Barco de Arena
Spain – Creation in 2008 Poetic street dance – 25 mn – accessible to all
A dancer and a structure, sometimes bridge, sometimes boat, or anything else you want. A character evolving on a background of sadness, who is prone to happiness and eager to share his universe, his loneliness, also his humor, his doubts, his tenderness and his clumsiness.
How to be a graceful, delicate, and charmingly funny dancer at the same time? Claire Ducreux successful answered this risky question, and with Barco de Arena proposes a dance solo for the street, with universal feelings.

Pied en Sol - Cabaret Dada
Redon (35) – Creation in 2009 Choreographic and mechanical sound fiction – 45 mn – accessible to all
In the smallest cabaret in the world, three artists venture on arts, sometimes with brilliance, sometimes with humour and poetry,..The Cabaret Dada is a succession of numbers where three disciplines mix: dance, music and singing, with an energy that makes everything become possible.
A ménage-à-trois, a story that is not quite one, a retro-futuristic music, soft madness and strangeness feelings, that is the universe of the new creation of this company from Brittany, whom the streets of Morlaix know quite well now.

Tony Clfton Circus - Christmas Forever
Italy - Belgium – Creation in 2009 Insane Street Theatre – 60 mn – accessible to all
Father Christmas is a saint. He is a super-hero, a marketing construction... He is the absolute symbol of the trend for immoderate consumption. He is one of Olympia’s divinities of collective imagination. Every child, when discovering that Father Christmas does not exist, understands that he is growing up, and that things will not be as beautiful and magic as they had been so far.
In this new crazy creation, Tony Clifton Circus’ mad artists-comedians attack the myth around Father Christmas... What a programme!
