 « A nonsense story », by the collective Open Ticket

The artists who let us explore their show called “A nonsense story”, come from the ENACR (National School of Circus Arts of Rosny-Sous-Bois).

Their collective “Open Ticket” represents an extraordinary cultural wealth, thanks to the numerous nationalities of the artists. “A nonsense story” is their third show, after “Babel”, created in August 2013, and “Aluzzz”, created in July 2014. It is directed by Voleak Ung, a young Cambodian flyer.

The show tells us the story of 7 performers, who will make you travel in a magical land where the circus, the dance and the theater answer themselves to provide a complete work of art. The characters gradually transform themselves and the public feels drawn into a rich storyline, like the Hitchcock’s films of the 1930s.

The performers for the Manila show are:
 Dimitri Rizzelo, Anaïs Albisetti, Voleak Ung, Cathrine Lundsgaard Nielsen, Pedro Alfeu Almeida Sá Marques Consciência, Vincent Brière, Lucas Struna.
