The edge of the world as stage, as playground.
Precariously balanced, a round track 3 m in diameter, resting on a levitating pebble,
this is our end of the world, an open door to dreams.

Somewhere, at the edge of the end of the world, there's a levitating pebble, a light, zany, aerial parallel world where time is suspended... A tiny rock inhabited by a half-man, half-pebble, a sort of solitary troglodyte whose quiet existence is about to be turned upside down by the arrival of a curious newcomer
by the arrival of a curious traveler. An adventuress with soles of wind who carries the circus within her.
How will these two characters learn to tame each other?

A fantastic circus made up of circus feats and magical odds and ends, a great trip for the whole family that inspires freedom and awakens a taste for encounters.
A zany universe where gravity is decidedly not the same

PRESS RELEASE

"Le Plus Petit Cirk Du Bord Du Bout Du Monde", a show full of invention and creativity. Two completely eccentric protagonists seek and avoid each other between juggling, illusion, imagery and magic... somewhere on a planet where Saint-Exupéry's Little Prince might, unsurprisingly, cross paths...
MAGMA Magazine - 2016

"Petit Cirk", a huge success.
[...] This afternoon, the stands were packed with
over 200 schoolchildren who came to discover Compagnie Opopop's show. [...] Spectators are literally drawn into their poetic, offbeat universe[...].
Vosges Matin - 2019

Take your children to another world, without leaving the region, at the Cirque-Théâtre d'Elbeuf.
[...] A circus filled with extraordinary little nothings and ordinary feats accomplished by the duo in their permanent quest for stability in this suspended space.
A superb show without wordsdedicated to children, it plays with shapes, trompe l'œil and juggling. A minimalist, fantastic circus that inspires freedom, the desire for encounters and the need to preserve our planet's priceless ecosystem.
La Dépèche - 2019

The smallest Cirk du bord du bout du Monde enchants schoolchildren on the Ernest Lambert stage in Châtenois.
Vosges Matin - 2020

Homécourt: can dreams help us live on the edge of the world?
[...]This fantastic circus show is particularly well-suited to the imaginations of children (and their parents). Without words, based on a visual and physical approach to the stage, it mixes circus feats, magic and technical bric-a-brac, in a strange and extravagant universe. Juggling in the service of storytelling is enhanced by lighting and finely-crafted music, giving this rock-side circus a poetic edge. [...]
A universe where gravity is decidedly not the same.
Républicain Lorrain - 2018
