Le cours des choses

„Le cours des choses“ explores the intricate dynamics of groups and systems, both on a small and large scale. What happens when everyone works together? And what unfolds when more and more people work against each other? On the trapeze, teamwork soars past, actions juggle with reactions and daring moves walk the fine line between success and failure. With plenty of humor, eleven young artists both surrender to and resist the course of events (le cours des choses) in this piece, through a fusion of circus, dance, and music.

Zirkus Chnopf has dedicated the past 35 years to nurturing Switzerland’s next generation of circus talents. Each year, they stage an open-air spectacle featuring aspiring young performers as well as professionals.

This summer, the troupe hits the road once more with their 2024 program, bringing their signature blend of artistry and adventure to audiences far and wide. And, as always, a stop at Cirqu' is part of the journey.
