In an atmosphere halfway between David Lynch and Intervilles ( French comedy game show ), a juggler wearing a bucket on his head sets up blindly in a series of useless experiments which will take him where he wasn’t expected to be. You will be his only guide and come what may! Nothing will prevent the course of things… Except you perhaps?
Absurdity, a couple of exploits and some failures, uncertainty, and a lot of broken dishes : Der Lauf is a story about life, directed by a juggler inviting us in a joyfully unusual universe.
Liberating and vibrant, Der Lauf is like no other.

LES VÉLOCIMANES ASSOCIÉS
Etymologically, the word vélocimane means “one whose hands move very fast.” In the 18th and 19th centuries, it was used to refer to a juggler.
The company Les Vélocimanes Associés produces, creates, and presents juggling shows.
«… our shows are created by jugglers. This means that even if juggling does not always take center stage in some of our productions, each piece is imbued with the perspective of its creators, who primarily identify as jugglers. The connection with objects—central to our practice—is shaped by a wide range of manipulation techniques and the construction of sequences that give our work its distinctive style, even as we move away from traditional approaches to juggling.
Les Vélocimanes Associés are committed to creating shows that are both grassroots and thought-provoking. We strongly believe in the circus tradition as something accessible to all and open to everyone. There’s nothing we enjoy more than adapting our shows to reach audiences who may be distant from mainstream cultural offerings.«
