Collectif Acrobatique de Tangier

Taoub

Weaving together traditional Moroccan acrobatics and modern performance in a poetic exploration of North African culture, Collectif Acrobatique de Tangier will delight you with their incredible ability and skills in their UK debut this Easter.

Hold your breath as the acrobats topple along the Tangier skyline or fly through the air in acts that defy gravity.  A seemingly endless sheet of fabric, which gives the show its name, morphs from bellowing backdrop to lavish dress - taking on a life of its own.  Live Arabic music and traditional songs further immerses you in this dream-like Moroccan world.

Building on  centuries of traditional Moroccan performance honed on the beaches of Tangier, this family company display the tricks of their forefathers with a raw, youthful energy.  Director Aurélien Bory, a pioneering figure in French contemporary circus and founder of the acclaimed Compagnie 111, adds the spice and humour of 21st century performance to their ancient art.
