Astra

Cirque des Puces

We are part of the universe, the astres surround us. Science has answered many of our questions but there is still much that we don't know. Luckily, human beings have the wonderful capacity of imagination!
Our trip around the universe will be full of surprises, as we explore different planets and discover strange species. The light and sound designs connect seamlessly to the action on stage and the magical, in large part live music​.

After the show, children can come on stage to try the different disciples they have seen during the performance with the help of the artists: acrobatics, juggling and body percussion - music, which the participants will try in turn. The children also have an opportunity to ask questions and talk with the artists.
