Bartok and Pipp have only one wish: to finally start their fitness workout. . But they keep getting interrupted by the weird noises coming from the other side of the neighbouring wall. They listen carefully. The weird noises are music, captivating music! Slowly they both begin to move to this freshly discovered music. One by one the neighbouring walls collapse, and all begin to dance exuberantly to the wonderful music of … Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Aerobics and classical music blend into a dashing slapstick.
Yoann Bourgeois is a truly unparalleled acrobat. He played himself into the audience’s hearts with Scala and his attempt to stretch the limits of gravity. He also fascinates as a juggler and choreographer. With les paroles impossibles, he returns to the stage with a new programme and new tricks, mesmerizing the audience as a breath-taking trapezist, a flying fakir, a magic dervish, a bird-like singer and much more besides. He is a master of his genre with countless tricks up his sleeve who knows how to captivate his spectators.
Two diametrically opposed clowns – an athletic strongman and a violin-playing female contortionist – driven by the same desire to play a musically and physically demanding music score, have to find their common ground in order to perform this concerto. The result is as hilarious as it is touching. The duo won the people’s choice award at the Off Festival in Avignon in 2013 and has continued to amaze the audiences since then.
In collaboration with Festival Clowns in Progress Kulturfabrik

EN Singer Laura Vital and clown Fran Caballero discover a sleeping dancer and try to wake her up. They are successful. Wearing a typical flamenco dress, she plays the castanets, tap-dances and moves to the live music. From tango to alegria to tanguilloa, the audience discovers the many rhythms of Spanish and Latin American dance. The clown’s amusing jokes and the singer’s didactic skills introduce the young audience to the world of flamenco and encourage them to utter their very first “Olé!”
ES La cantaora Laura Vital está tratando de despertar a una bailaora. Viene a ayudarla Fran Caballero, un payaso con nariz roja y unos instrumentos musicales un poco raros, y entre los dos lo consiguen. Y cuando la bailaora se despierta, se abre un mundo nuevo: a ritmo de tangos y alegrías, de rasgueos de guitarra y repique de castañuelas, la bailaora gira y gira haciendo revolotear el vestido. Entre bromas del payaso y explicaciones nada rollo de la cantaora, los niños, con la marcha que les dan estos artistas tan simpáticos, lanzan sus primeros oles.

EN Ana Morales transforms the mourning of her father’s death into the energy of dance. The starting point for this personal, virtuoso choreography was everything that was left unsaid between her and her father. Between classic flamenco and contemporary dance, tradition and modernity, Morales paves the way to her own identity. Accompanied by her dance partner José Manuel Alvarez and the singer Juan José Amador, they sensitively bring the deceased father back to life on stage.
ES Ana Morales explora sus recuerdos de un padre nacido en un tiempo de hombres callados. Sola primero, rodeada luego de figuras masculinas de simbolismo polivalente, distintas facetas de su relación con la masculinidad, Ana emprende un viaje poético al fondo de su memoria. La escenografía, austera, enmarca la soledad de esta depuración íntima. Nada sobra, todo es esencial. En su caminar interior hacia la construcción de la propia personalidad, “Ana ha logrado convertir su historia en la historia de todos, ir del caso personal al universal, tocar además de la piel, el hueso.” (Silvia Cruz Lapeña).
The earth is shaking, everything is disintegrating. A child is facing a blank canvas and starts to create a new world with black colour. The child’s only tools are it’s own body and the colour. Bit by bit, a new universe emerges: forests, clouds, birds and whales. Dancer and choreographer Bénédicte Mottart invites young and old to join her on this voyage of intimate discovery. In harmony with the live music specifically created for Humanimal , Mottart confronts the audience with our instinctive physical world relation ship. In each human being an animal is slumbering, and within that animal a whole world – see for yourself!
The mafia films of the 1930s have inspired The Rat Pack company to create their first very own stage show. Six acrobats bring a Scorsese-like world to life. A mafia boss, his wife, his henchman, a pin-up girl, a barman and an outlaw amaze the audience with spectacular stunts and extreme body control. They are accompanied by the music of well-known French electro masters Chinese Man. Breathtaking!
A rhythmic to-ing and fro-ing, a respectful granting of priority and withdrawal, a sensitive exercise in emphasizing and submerging. Jean-Guillaume Weis, master of dance, and Pascal Schumacher, master of music, come together to create a harmonic interaction between body and melody. At times the dancers give precedence to the musicians, at times the music withdraws to make room for the choreography. Like two lovers, who individually display their emotions, they eventually come together. Sixty immersive minutes – spontaneous and sensitive.
Another date is scheduled at CAPE – Centre des Arts Pluriels Ettelbruck on May 12.
