Described by Le Monde as “a meditation on risk, vertigo and fear,” Corps extrêmes features a cast of aerial artists, acrobats, a highliner, and a climber who perform awe-inspiring feats between earth and sky. Through powerful visuals, spoken word, and an evocative score by Jean-Baptiste Julien, the show captures the serene clarity found in confronting the void.

Named one of the best performances of 2023 by The New York Times, this must-see production is both intimate and spectacular — a dreamlike journey rooted in physical virtuosity and human resilience.
