En Masse by Circa
HomePage
Overview
On June 14 and 15, 2025, in the Pierre Boulez auditorium, the Philharmonie de Paris welcomed the acrobats of the Australian company Circa for their show En masse, a creation combining contemporary circus and classical music—the fiery tale of a fallen civilization and its rebirth, carried by great pieces from the repertoires of Franz Schubert and Igor Stravinsky. German tenor Hans Jörg Mammel, an accomplished interpreter of the Austrian composer, sang several excerpts from the Lieder, while pianists Tanguy de Williencourt and Thomas Enhco, virtuosos of the young French scene, performed a duet that captured all the cataclysmic verve of The Rite of Spring.

7.4Cirque du Soleil: Dralion(fr)
The Chinese consider the lion a symbol of good luck, so it's a half-dragon, half-lion – a dralion – that is the symbol of the East-meets-West fusion of this performance in which 36 Chinese acrobats join the renowned Canadian troupe. Celebrating the four elements as represented in four colours – blue (air), green (water), red (fire) and ochre (earth) – Dralion combines ancient Chinese circus traditions with Cirque du Soleil's usual stunning elements: the techno-oriented single ring; the multicoloured lights and costumes; the music that mixes rock, New Age and various world influences (though not Chinese); and the madcap clowns that pull a victim out of the audience.
7.7Cirque du Soleil: Alegria(en)
Alegría is a mood, a state of mind. The themes of the show, whose name means "jubilation" in Spanish, are many. Power and the handing down of power over time, the evolution from ancient monarchies to modern democracies, old age, youth - it is against this backdrop that the characters of Alegría play out their lives. Kings' fools, minstrels, beggars, old aristocrats and children make up its universe, along with the clowns, who alone are able to resist the passing of time and the social transformations that accompany it.
7.1Cirque du Soleil: Journey of Man(en)
A child is born. We see underwater swimmers representing this. He is young, in a jungle setting, with two fanciful "instincts" guiding him as swooping bird-like acrobats initially menace, then delight. As an adolescent, he enters a desert, where a man spins a large cube of metal tubing. He leaves his instinct-guides behind, and enters a garden where two statues dance in a pond. As he watches their sensual acrobatics of love, he becomes a man. He is offered wealth (represented by a golden hat) by a devil figure. In a richly decorated room, a scruffy troupe of a dozen acrobats and a little girl reawaken the old man's youthful nature and love.
