In Plus Minus, a wordless show blending object theater, sensory performance, and contemporary circus, artists Alexis Rouvre and Loïc Faure tap into the forces of polarization, attraction, and repulsion shaping our modern world.
Through magnets, static electricity, and shifting physical forces, the duo steps beyond raw acrobatics to craft a deeply poetic visual and auditory landscape. Partners in contrast, their bodies and props clash, align, and converse; softening rigid ideologies to celebrate our shared humanity through play and laughter.
A compelling, immersive experience that gently sweeps the audience between life’s harsher truths and its enduring hopes.
