The spectacular performance by two completely different circus troupes promise to be suggestive and poetic, fiery and passionate. Cirque XY "Laissez-Portez"The six-member Cirque XY will present its "Laissez-Portez" program in the theater tent, inviting the audience on a journey to the unknown. The backdrop: three boards and nine suitcases. The suitcases are filled with the past, full of hope for the future. The travelers meet, travel part of the way together and depart from each other. The three boards signify both their connection and separation. This performance elicits the never-before-seen with its intriguing simplicity, wonderful poetry and overwhelming intensity. Cirque Rasposo "Parfum d’Est"The Cirque Rasposo ushers the audience into the life of a wandering family – full of love, jealousy, pain and joy. The "Parfum d’Est“ show lets spectators sit on the edge of a Nomad family's living room, where they can watch the family members tease, argue, eat, celebrate, love and fight. Amazing feats, comedy and breathtaking acrobatics lend expression to these feelings. And above all: gypsy music! Seven artists and four musicians, all deeply rooted in the circus tradition, combine their different talents and temperaments to present a show packed with dreams and reality. Admission:Adults: 32 euros/28 eurosChildren (to the age of 15): 14 eurosCombined adult ticket: 52 euros (two performances on different days)Combined children's ticket: 26 euros The ticket is also the bus ticket for zone "S".
