Description

The curtain has fallen. The theatre has been plunged into darkness. One lone light is left on: the ghost light. It’s to attract the ghosts that linger there. Rediscovering the energy of their past life, they propel each other around, push each other away, have fun with each other, hurt each other, and, finally, embrace each other again.

Ghost Light: Entre la chute et l’envol makes the invisible visible. With more than 10 years of experience collaborating together on stages around the world, Maxim Laurin and Ugo Dario take us on a captivating journey that brings together stunning acrobatics, choreography, ghostly lighting and lively music.

They offer a personal glimpse into a partnership. The teeterboard propels them toward each other in the euphoria of flight, the ease of weightlessness and the inevitability of the fall.

Get ready to be moved by this story that goes beyond what words can communicate.
