From 1 to 11 June, AY-ROOP offers increasingly hybrid and innovative circus forms.
AY-ROOP corresponds to the onomatopoeia scanned during the insertion of the clamps and the towing of the guy wires, the hoist of the circus assemblers when they install the capital.
Since 2005, the AY-ROOP association has resonated «Cirque en Création» and «Cirque et Territoires», developing a global project in favour of circus arts.
In 2016, the association was labeled Scène de territoire for the track arts by the Direction régionale des affaires culturelles (DRAC) of Brittany.
For the tenth edition of its festival supported by the DRAC Bretagne, the AY-ROOP team offers 11 shows on several sites of the Rennes metropolis in 28 performances. A nose walk, accompanied by the Volkanik band, will take place on the last day of the festival.
The alchemy of the programming and the public success of these nine previous editions, in theatres, under marquees, in the streets, on squares and even in the subway, make this Fort a “must-see” event on the local and national cultural scene.
