HIGHLIGHTS: HUELLAS

The contemporary circus has not finished surprising audiences yet!

 

Huellas, presented at the Théâtre du Rond-Point, is a stunning contemporary circus show by circus artists Matias Pilet and Fernando González Bahamóndez. Under the artistic direction of Olivier Meyrou, this show invites us to reflect on our origins and our place in the world through a poetic and acrobatic staging.

 

On stage, Matias Pilet and Fernando González Bahamóndez embody two distinct figures, evoking Neanderthal man and modern man. Their bodies, with very distinct physiques and expressions, move with grace and great precision, offering a wordless story that spans the ages.

 

Huellas highlights the strength and fragility of the human body. The acrobatics, sometimes powerful and aerial, sometimes delicate and intense, flawlessly illustrate the body's extraordinary physical and expressive potential.

 

Beyond the individual performance, Huellas also explores the bonds that unite us as human beings. The interactions between the two characters, marked by complicity and mutual respect, remind us of our shared humanity and history.

 

A show notable for its beauty of movement and poetry of gesture, you're bound to be fascinated by these choreographies. Punctuated by music and lighting, you'll find it easy to enter this world of physical strength and camaraderie.

 

Accessible to all audiences, young and old alike, Huellas is a show that invites you to daydream and reflect.
Let us take you by the hand and lead you into an astonishing show!

History and Fun Facts about Théâtre du Rond-Point

 

If you ever want to feel the pulse of the French theatre scene, the Théâtre du Rond-Point is the place to be! But which roundabout or "rond-point" is it exactly? It's one of the most famous roundabouts in Paris, located near the Champs-Elysées, smaller than the famous Etoile roundabout under the Arc de Triomphe. Since 1981, it has attracted a host of directors from all over the world and a host of people with a passion for theatre. A major venue for contemporary creation since 1991, the Rond-Point does not programme "what people like, but what they don't yet know they like", according to Jean-Michel Ribes, the theatre's former director. Since 2023, Laurence de Magalhaes and Stéphane Ricordel have taken over the reins of this theatre, which is still rooted in contemporary creation and focuses on living authors.
