The Stars of the Beijing Circus take to the Phénix Circus ring with Odyssée, coming to Paris from November 28, 2026 to January 10, 2027. This new production brings together 40 artists across Chinese acrobatic disciplines in a staging designed to refresh their presentation. With a running time of 1 hour 50 minutes and a 20-minute intermission, the show is pitched for all audiences.
Odyssée builds on the long history of Chinese acrobatic arts while placing them in a contemporary framework. Balance acts, juggling, Icarian games, aerial silks and pole, jump rope, and antipodism are among the disciplines showcased on stage.
The production is led by Cirque Phénix and Alain M. Pacherie. The acts come alive with new sets, costumes and musical worlds. The show opens with a nine-minute sequence inspired by an international pop video, reinterpreted through acrobatics.
With its numerous performances scheduled in December, Odyssey is also among the options for a family-friendly circus during the Christmas holidays in Paris. Cirque Phénix notably offers rates for children aged 2 to 12 and family-oriented deals.
After this Parisian residency under the big top set up at Place du Cardinal-Lavigerie, Odyssée is set to tour the Zéniths and several major venues across France starting in January 2027.
