La Boule

A sphere, like a mass, 120 kilos in constant movement, a fusion of bodies where one no longer knows where the impulse comes from. This mass of entangled bodies tries to walk, in continuous movement, in a permanent progression forward. A form of relay is created when one person rests on another to catch their breath. What relationships emerge between two people who don't know if they are going to be made to walk and don't understand what they are going through? Like tumbleweed, this ball of dried grass is pushed by the wind, lost in the Far West.

Kim Marro trained at the Flic in Italy and at the CNAC, specialised at the Cyr wheel. In parallel, she studied clothing design and has been designing costumes for herself and the company La Frontera.

Liam Lelarge, a child of the circus, grew up touring in circus tents. She joined the Châtellerault School as an aerialist and then the CNAC for the trapeze.

The two acrobats met at the CNAC and the idea of working together emerged very quickly. But in their first show, there will be neither trapeze nor cyr wheel, simply their research around a ball of bodies that tries to walk.
