Presentation

Humans who bury their heads in the sand and we don't know if they are playing a role or if this is the way they really are. Balancing artists that act as if they are all alone together. Because even when they do the same thing, they are different. Moving paradoxes that sink at that same time as they rise. Curious creatures with their own language. Some dare silence, emptiness, and risks; others tell stories. Their vertical obsessions reveal the beauty and the rigor of their discipline, the strength of their artistic pursuit, their need to both talk about it and experience it. Le complexe de l'autruche [The Ostrich Complex] is an ode to diversity, an incongruous and prophetic fable, and a delightful journey!

Friends, associates, and long-time colleagues, the balancing artists-author-performers of the Collectif d'Équilibristes have enjoyed a wealth of shared experiences. From countless rehearsals to profound discussions about the art of balancing and from solo shows to group performances, this creative team has pushed the boundaries of this artistic universe and unveiled a vast range of possibilities. As a result, they have built a dynamic collective based on a solo discipline.
