ABOUT THE ARTISTS
The duo AGATHE AND ADRIEN graduated from the Circus School of Quebec in 2018. They work at the edge of circus, dance, and theater/performing arts.
Their multi-disciplined skills have allowed them to develop a unique circus vocabulary. As emerging artists, Agathe and Adrien began their careers working for well-established circus companies in Quebec, but wanted to express their social and environmental values through a committed circus. So, they turned towards independent circus creations presented in Quebec, including Branché, Piece of Mind, Interact, and N.Ormes.
Tired of the obsolete and toxic patterns of male/female relationships present in the circus world today, the duo combines the codes of circus, contemporary dance and performance art to create a rich, complex acrobatic language, as a part of a feminist approach to redefining standards.
