L’Absolu

Published on 22 October 2024

A virtuoso artist, Boris Gibé blends circus, dance, and magic in this performance that never ceases to surprise the audience.

It all begins at the entrance. In a strange silo that rises to 12 meters in height, spectators are invited to take their seats along a spiral staircase. Within this vertiginous structure, they discover a hypnotic, breathtaking ballet that puts human bodies to the test.

In a shadowy atmosphere, an acrobat is suspended in the void and twirls to the accompaniment of spellbinding music. He performs amazing tricks and weaves a sublime tale. In his quest for truth, the man battles the elements – water, air, fire – and ultimately breaks free of everything that holds him back

L’Absolu tells the story of an intimate journey and flamboyant risk-taking.

Each of Boris Gibé’s creations is an immersive, sensory, and poetic experience. As part of the Les Choses de Rien circus company, the artist creates shows performed in travelling structures. These creations combine acrobatic and aerial techniques with dance and drama.
