...AND THE IDEAS SOAR

A circular and empty space. A body, a microphone, speakers, spotlights, and lines of light take center stage in this contemporary circus performance. Through gesture, sound, gaze, or touch, the audience is invited to take part in this journey full of acrobatics, humor, play, light, and music.

…And Ideas soar is a fresh performance where a few objects carry great weight and small actions grow until they become intense, playful scenes, full of complicity, that soar with the audience.

The piece is aimed at children between 2 and 5 years old. Animal Religion works to innovate circus and to seek new means of expression. From the beginning of its creations, it has shared a space where light, body, and sound/music emerge simultaneously, creating a distinct identity.
