Circus

The Award

Cie Back Poket
13.03.2026

Dear audience, you’re attending the Awards ceremony, no more and no less, compared to which the Palms, Césars, Lions, Ours and Oscars look like cheap trophies. Virtuoso circus performers, the nine members of the Back Pocket company serve as masters of ceremony, prizewinners and magnificent losers in this show evoking a cinema gala. Except that the glitz soon gives way to manifest jealousies, and the glamorous smiles are supplanted by the most rewarding low blows. The awards ceremony goes out of control, the humour fizzes like champagne, and the red carpet then becomes the stage for high-flying acrobatic prowess!
