Description:
The Barks Company is a contemporary circus company created around the desire to play with gravity. Bastien Dausse created the show Les idées grises with François Lemoine in 2016. This first show has been presented around a hundred times in France and abroad (Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, Italy) and the short form was notably presented in 2016 in the IN of the Avignon festival.
Bastien Dausse continues his research by developing new projects. (Dis)balance is at the heart of his work, he plays with gravity by associating acrobatic material with scenography, sculpture, science and other genre encounters. From this research, he created the show Moon / cabinet of lunar curiosities in 2022. Conceived as an acrobatic and mechanical exhibition, he imagines multiple performances around antigravity machines, which shake up the laws of physics and question our relationship to everyday life. In 2023, he created the young audience show MIR.
Description of the ad
For this creation, Bastien Dausse imagines seven object-sculptures on which the performers will move. This show questions our relationship to weight, balance, and time, not through a linear narrative, but through a series of choreographic and acrobatic experiments. The show will evolve in fragments, each tableau offering a new story. The company is looking for two performers; they will take part in the residencies, rehearsals, and the tour.
