With this show, which was originally created for the legendary Parisian department store Le Bon Marché, the Compagnie Le Roux has pulled out all the stops. The performance takes audiences on a journey through time, from 1870 to the present day.

To bring this historical epic to life, a specialized structure measuring several meters in height has been constructed. Built like a vertical stage, it rises up before the spectators, revealing three apartments. In these magnificent settings, the daily lives of three young women are recounted.

Eight virtuoso performers defy the laws of gravity. They impress us with their ambitious lifts, contortions, and balancing. They blend comedy, dance, and the circus arts. In the process, they add a touch of the sublime to this epic tale of revolt and emancipation.
