HIGHLIGHTAs the title of the show suggests, love is what makes Kati Pikkarainen and Victor Cathala's virtuoso performances so splendid. Whether romantic, messy or slow-paced, on the beach or in a garage, marital tiffs are the driving force of a domestic circus that turns everyday life into a chill you can feel on your skin.Goosebumps, Le Monde, February 2012
SYNOPSIS Novo Circo returns to our stage with Pour le meilleur et pour le pire'. Kati Pikkarainen and Victor Cathala use their personal stories as a platform from which to present a show made of poetry, rock and roll and humour.
Pour le meilleur et pour le pire' presents us with a raw portrait of the intimacy of a couple living in, and from, the circus. Whether lying on the ground, performing amazing aerial acrobatics or extraordinary balancing acts or simply travelling, the performers bring to the stage a story as sad as it is happy, making the audience both laugh and cry always with the presence of a faithful and indispensable companion for life on the road: the car.
