What exactly is Cirque Éloize iD? Imagine a deserted urban space that comes to life on stage with an adrenaline rush as the electronic yet poetic rock music begins and an amazing array of playful, skilled and youthful city dwellers meet on the streets to captivate you with their jaw-dropping movements as the city comes alive in an explosion of light, sound and non-stop movement. The show’s lucid energy and poetry explores the idea of freedom - the notion of going down into the underground is enticing as the younger generation takes over the city by dancing and jumping that turns it into a place of wonder where anything can happen.

In the middle of the city exists a public space. It’s a spot where one can seek refuge and escape anonymity, to express one’s inDividuality and affirm one’s iDentity and autonomy in order to reclaim possession of public space, and to dance in the city. An area for encounters, a site of passage, a hood where clans confront one another, where friendships are woven. Where love is created and dissolved. Now imagine two rival gangs, sharing a public place at the heart of a city, and seeking to express their iDentity and inDividuality, and you have iD.
Since the company was founded in 1993, Cirque Éloize has become a world leader in contemporary circus arts. Staging innovative productions, the company specializes in creating shows that combine circus arts with theater, dance and music in a path-breaking manner.
