ODYSSÉE is a bold reinvention of Chinese acrobatic arts — a tradition with a 5,000-year history — conceived by Le Cirque Phénix and artistic director Alain M. Pacherie. The show blends spectacular scenography, eye-catching costumes and an electrifying soundtrack to create a circus experience designed for all audiences.
Les Étoiles du Cirque de Pékin, acknowledged masters of their craft, perform acts that push physical limits in a completely reimagined stage production. From the very first scene — a nine-minute opening tribute to one of the world's most iconic pop stars, presented as an acrobatic adaptation of a record-breaking music video — the show aims to astonish both first-time circus-goers and seasoned aficionados.
ODYSSÉE is conceived for families, music and dance lovers, and anyone who may have considered circus a dated art form. The production makes a compelling case that contemporary Chinese acrobatic circus is anything but.
