The emergence of innovative authors and writings has brought the creativity of contemporary circus in France and contributed to the recognition of the specificity of this art. To continue this aesthetic evolution and strengthen their artistic approach, circus authors must be able to dedicate time to the composition of their creation and rely on dramaturgical collaborations. In view of these findings, fed by the feedback from the field that Artcena has collected, «Writing for the circus» provides a first concrete response to the needs of companies and the challenges of the sector.
