“A line is a dot that went for a walk,” said painter Paul Klee. Throughout history, people have drawn lines through walking, writing, drawing, and weaving. Inspired by this quote, Entre les lignes invites us to connect with the world through these flows, lines, breaths, and furrows that represent so many ways of being connected. In a space covered with sand, three circus performers perform acrobatics and balancing acts. As they move, lines appear, sounds rise, landscapes emerge, and a strange bamboo structure is revealed. This sensory creation is aimed at all audiences and welcomes young children, who are in a period of life when relationships with the body and with others are being formed.
There is a parent-child workshop based on the show: theatre-semaphore-portdebouc.com

Biography
In the Compagnie Lunatic’s unique and sensory shows, aerial acrobatics and music are intimately connected. These creations result from a close collaboration between Cécile Mont-Reynaud, a trained architect, aerial acrobat, and author, and Gilles Fer, a set designer.
