Circus Arts, Dance, Music

Propelled by a surge of passion and hope,
these sunny and candid individuals follow the light of a new land on the horizon.

They help each other step by step, twirling through obstacles,
and build a new path, that of tomorrow.

An adventure thus takes shape and takes us on a journey at crossroads of Africa and the West,

in search of freedom and a better world.

FA is an Ode to Life, overflowing with energy and radiating of a deep and sacred human union.
