With ID Evolution, Cirque Éloize presents a visionary new creation - based on the successful production ID - that combines urban circus, digital art and great emotions in a completely new way. The renowned company from Montréal is opening a new chapter in nouveau cirque - explosive, poetic and highly topical.
Ten international artists - specialists in breakdance, trampoline, aerial acrobatics, trial bike, cyr wheel and more - move through a visually captivating world in which the boundaries between reality and digital art dissolve. Acrobatics, street dance and hip-hop influences merge into a powerful visual language. Specially composed music and immersive video projections create a dense atmosphere in which questions of identity, belonging and transformation unfold with great intensity.
“West Side Story gone Hip Hop Circus”, wrote the Montréal Gazette enthusiastically - perfectly summing up the mixture of classical storytelling, urban energy and circus innovation. At the center of this new show, ID Evolution, is a journey through a futuristic city - through body images, lightscapes and digital spaces. The artists tell stories of self-discovery, change and the desire for connection - with oneself, with others and with a changing world.
