Presentation

In this number we have some great classics – Vivaldi, Strauss, Bach –except that the musicians are clowns, "poets in action", according to Henry Miller's delightful words. Les Rois Vagabonds (The Vagabond Kings) draw their inspiration as much from the figure of the traditional clown as they do that of a new genre. Red noses, white faces, extravagant costumes, they play a disrupted and mad Concerto that mixes miming and acrobatics with music... Barely a few words into the show and our companions already drag us along on their moving and funny path, a path that is riddled with buffoonery and clownish traps. With their alternatively foolish or poetic body language, Les Rois Vagabonds speak a universal language that is steeped in humanity. 

By and With: Julia Moa Caprez and Igor Sellem
Technicians: Sacha Pinget and Florian Euvrard

“This concerto for two clowns who are opposites in every way fuses thanks its high-flying music and full-bodied score. A must-see enchantment!" – France 3

“We may wonder what kind of fantastic destiny brought these two together, if not the immoderate eccentricity that they endlessly share. A delight." – Télérama 

Les Rois Vagabonds was born upon the meeting of Julia Moa Caprez and Igor Sellem. Their eclectic toolbox holds everything from acrobatics to music, dance to theater, and generates a common desire to explore the art of clowning. Since 2008, they have developed the story of their duo through the quest for a universal – and wordless – language. They follow in the tradition of clowns like the emblematic Grock, Buffo, or Slava who have continued to transform their performance throughout their lives.
