After captivating audiences at the Avignon Off Festival, Circo Infinito is coming to the Théâtre Bobino in Paris for an exceptional series of performances from October 15 to November 22, 2026. Conceived, directed and performed by Alejandro Escobedo, this contemporary theatre-circus show invites young and old to experience an immersive journey where visual poetry, circus arts and physical theatre meet in a world as delicate as it is spectacular.
From the very first notes of the performance, the audience is transported to a world suspended between heaven and earth. An impressive set design, composed of vast white sails subtly illuminated, transforms the stage into a shifting landscape where every element seems alive. The fabrics become mountains, clouds, shelters, or even playmates, creating a minimalist setting that leaves ample room for the imagination. The moon, subtly present throughout the performance, accompanies this dreamlike and symbolic journey.
At the heart of this unique world are Alejandro Escobedo, Emily Tissot, and Rémi Bolard, who bring to life a story told primarily through movement, emotion, and body language. Without using words, they explore the universal themes of solidarity, trust, mutual support, and resilience. Each encounter, each acrobatic feat, and each movement on stage conveys an emotion and reminds us of the strength of the bonds that unite human beings.
Throughout the 1 hour and 15 minute performance, the circus disciplines flow seamlessly together. Aerial acrobatics, lifts, balancing acts, physical theatre, and object manipulation intertwine in a remarkably refined staging. The artists defy gravity with elegance while maintaining a close connection with the audience, prioritizing storytelling, sensitivity, and poetry over mere technical demonstration.
Circo Infinito is first and foremost a tribute to the poetry of everyday life and the magic of small gestures. Through a minimalist aesthetic dominated by white hues, light, and textiles, Alejandro Escobedo constructs a timeless space where every movement becomes an invitation to dream. The performance celebrates everyone's capacity to imagine a more united world, where cooperation overcomes obstacles and beauty is born from simplicity.
The production is also distinguished by its significant scenographic work, conceived by Alejandro Escobedo and enriched by the artistic collaborations of Anne Kaempf and Dr. Maddly Guillaume, with the artistic support of Nino Celestino. Clothilde Hoffmann's lighting design enhances each scene by playing with shadows, transparencies, and the volumes of the immense veils that fill the stage space. Stage management is handled by Timothée Ritlewski and Julien Hatrisse, ensuring the technical precision of this particularly demanding production.
Presented by Blue Line Productions, Circo Infinito appeals to a very wide audience. Children will be captivated by the visual magic and acrobatic feats, while adults will appreciate the rich symbolism, the delicate staging, and the emotional depth of this work. Accessible, sensitive, and universal, this show offers multiple layers of interpretation, allowing each viewer to create their own inner journey.
Set within the intimate setting of the Théâtre Bobino, located at 14-20 rue de la Gaîté in Paris's 14th arrondissement, Circo Infinito promises a suspended moment, poised between dream and reality. A true invitation to slow down, contemplate, and surrender to the imagination, this creation confirms Alejandro Escobedo's talent for designing a circus-theatre experience where technical virtuosity always serves the emotion.
Through a series of scenes imbued with gentleness, humor, and poetry, Circo Infinito reminds us that the most beautiful balances are not born from individual performance, but from trust, sharing, and the ability to build together. A luminous, profoundly human, and visually captivating show that will appeal to all lovers of contemporary circus and visual theater.
