Presentation

Any resemblance to reality is not at all a coincidence. Using the conventions of the traditional circus - a circular ring, an orchestra, a clown - Cirque Pardi! presents a contemporary circus show that is a tribute to confusion and fragility. In an endless film shoot, the artists move from shadow to light, allowing themselves to transcend their own characters and to move from fiction to reality, all while never forgetting that they are the directors of their own existence. Equipped with beauty and demanding justice, Low Cost Paradise reveals the poetry of reality and the need for fiction. Fixed trapeze, swinging trapeze, dance, acrobatic bicycle, tightrope walking, acrobatic lifts, clowning, and juggling all come together in a magical and theatrical universe.

"A hybrid creation that mixes circus, live music, glitter, and machinery, while questioning the common person and their relationship to society."

L'Hebdo du Vendredi

Cirque Pardi! is a collective of artists, builders, and drivers that are united by a modern traveling circus project. The heart of the circus is a sincere and experimental artistic approach based on research into new creative dimensions. This results in shows with a markedly distinct atmosphere. The convoy travels through Europe without forgetting its home base back in Toulouse, France.
