Jean-Paul Lefeuvre and Didier André have been an inseparable duo for more than 20 years. They share an irresistible urge for simplicity, a love of craft as well as a delightfully dry sense of humour that will leave you reeling. In their latest show, they turn everyday objects - a plank, a petanque ball, a sledgehammer - into true protagonists. What normally lies gathering dust in a shed comes to life in their hands in an absurd, poetic play full of surprises.

Do not expect a circus with glitter and noise. This is slow circus at its best: sober, funny, inventive - and every move counts. Their playing field looks like a sandpit, a tennis court or a giant pool table, but the rules are simple: anything goes, as long as it is done with imagination.

A playful, poetic performance full of absurd inventions and dryly comic acrobatics - perfect for anyone who loves surprising and quirky theatre.
