Magic will once again unfold under the Théâtre Bormann’s spotlights!
For 45 years, this circus-theatre near the Pont du Garigliano has been a place where stories are passed on, emotions are felt, and discoveries are made. ARBRE sits squarely in that tradition, while adding a contemporary twist. The show draws on the Bormann family history, rooted in a long circus lineage, but reimagines it by weaving in current themes like nature and the environment.
The tree, a powerful symbol of this heritage, becomes the common thread of this creation. It represents not only the deep roots of this family, but also the evolution of its art, from ancestral circus techniques to modern performances combining dance, theater and special effects. The spectator is invited to enter a universe where the tree becomes a source of life, creativity and poetry, in an artistic context that is as spectacular as it is responsible.
From the opening moments, ARBRE astonishes with the range of its performances. The fusion of circus disciplines with contemporary dance, immersive theater, and stunning visual effects crafts a breathtaking show. Each tableau invites the audience to dive into a fantastical world where imagination meets reality, where acrobatics mingle with poetry, and where spectators, young and old, can only be spellbound.
The Bormann family, true to its reputation, keeps reinventing itself. The message behind ARBRE is firmly anchored in current events: the preservation of nature and our resources. This show then takes on a powerful symbolic dimension, turning the tree into a central character who is both guardian and source of renewal, much like the art of the circus, always in motion.
The creation of ARBRE also fits within a broader sustainability agenda. More than just entertainment, this show invites audiences to reflect on our relationship with nature and on how we can safeguard the planet for future generations. The Bormann family thus resonates with contemporary issues while celebrating the human and artistic values that have guided them for more than 45 years.
With ARBRE, the Bormann family manages to captivate all generations. Whether you’re a circus enthusiast or a first-timer, this show is a genuine breath of oxygen for the whole family. The youngest spectators will be spellbound by the acrobatics and the surprising acts, while adults will appreciate the delicate blend of emotion, technical prowess, and reflections on the future.
As you leave the circus theatre, you'll feel as if you've traveled through time and space, while taking a much-needed pause in a world where fantasy blends with the beauty of nature.
