At MAD Festival, young performers and students at circus colleges meet, from Belgium and abroad. MAD creates a place where they can train and perform together. Thanks to collaborations with circus schools through whole Europa, on our MAD Generation stage we show new creators, ready to make the step to the professional circuit.

This performance consists of 2 short acts of 10' each, followed by a short show of 30'. A hot dip in a vibrant circus pool, in two episodes!

In Episode I (Thursday and Friday), we welcome these young artists:

Hanne Pandelaers (10')
A little dust blowing up.
The road is lost.
The train is ready on the tracks.
So she takes her turn.
That's what it's all about.

Ting Kuan (10')
A painter, he can't concentrate, something always seems to interfere with his thoughts and this energy leads him further and further away... Fearful, devastated, surprised, frightened, Pretending to be serious, he couldn't care less.

Amoukanama - FA (30')
A group of young people set off in search of a new world. Coming from different horizons, they pull together to move forward. Driven by passion and hope, these sunny and open-hearted individuals follow the light of a new land on the horizon. They help each other, step by step, flying over and through obstacles, building a new path, that of tomorrow. 
This play is a first step towards the full show FA, to be released in September 2023. Director/choreographer: Anthony Weiss. Co-producer: Compagnie les Mélangeurs.

The host of MAD Generation Episode 1 is Laure Osselin.
