Presentation

A Chinese pole, a chair, a small table, carpets, a newspaper, a bottle, and a glass of water. The stage is set, it’s the home of Mr. François! When a street show invites itself inside, a new realm of freedom opens up for him. Mr. François is as endearing as he is fragile, and he will use all his energy to charm his audience. Between poetic chaos, burlesque challenges, and vertical acrobatics, he embarks the spectator along with him in his quest and his questioning of recurring current events. Attention: this is an emotional experience!
